Riyadh: The Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) has adopted a comprehensive strategy aimed at enhancing Saudi women’s participation in the fields of data and artificial intelligence (AI). This is achieved by providing a supportive work environment that empowers them across various specializations within these advanced technologies, contributing to sustainability and innovation. The strategy supports pioneering projects and initiatives led by SDAIA, reinforcing its role as the national authority for the regulation, development, and management of data and AI.

According to Saudi Press Agency, SDAIA has provided women with opportunities to participate in decision-making and empowerment, from leadership positions to technical roles, within a comprehensive work system aligned with its ambitious strategy. This has enabled women to demonstrate their competence across various sectors related to data management and artificial intelligence development. Additionally, SDAIA has appointed female data scientists and AI engineers to strategic positions within the authority to support the achievement of its national objectives.

The empowerment of women in SDAIA reflects the Kingdom’s commitment to enhancing their role in building a sustainable, knowledge-based economy driven by data, AI, and digital transformation.
