AMMAN – Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Global Digital (TAG.GD) and the Global Center for AI Excellence (GCAIE) signed a strategic alliance agreement with the aim of enhancing cooperation between the two corporations concerned with artificial intelligence (AI).

The agreement was signed by HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, founder and chairman of TAG.GD, and HE Dr. Yousef Saadeh, GCAIE CEO and Managing Director.

According to the agreement, the two sides will establish a long-term cooperation to develop responsible AI systems, strengthen accreditation and assessment standards, launch specialized training and qualification programs, and build efficient governance models that support secure and ethical use of AI at the educational and economic institutions.

During the signing ceremony, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh affirmed the necessity of leveraging AI as a cornerstone in developing education and entities, as well as building knowledge-based economy, in a mechanism that advances the standing of the Arab world as a regional hub in this field. He also referred to the significance of benefitting from the knowledge revolution in fostering creativity and innovation in the Arab youth.

He further stated, “Individuals must always believe in their ambition to achieve their goals; success is a decision. Just as we led the world in intellectual property, we seek to lead the world in artificial intelligence.” He also called on governments to introduce programming education into school curriculum, describing it as the foundation of AI, which is fundamentally ‘interactive programming’.

For his part, Dr. Saadeh highlighted that the alliance with TAG.GD represents more than an intellectual partnership; but rather a comprehensive institutional alliance that lays the foundation for the next phase. He remarked that the world today experiences a transformative shift comparable in depth and impact to the 1960s, when Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh advocated for intellectual property and the knowledge-based economy long before their global importance was widely acknowledged.


Dr. Saadeh praised the efforts and cooperation TAG.GD exerted in concluding the agreement, expressing pride in the alliance as a significant step toward unifying efforts to develop reliable standards, build qualified human capacities, and strengthen trust in AI applications across institutions and sectors.

The signing ceremony was attended by a distinguished group of academic leaders, officials, and experts specializing in AI, education, and institutional accreditation.

Additionally, a high-level delegation representing GCAIE, including the Center’s Chief Technology and Innovation Officer (CTIO), Dr. Mohammad Sharif, the Center’s Country Representative in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, HE Dr. Hani Al-Mimi; and Consultant and Regional Head of Accreditation and Assessment, Mr. Nael Al-Awadi, in addition to a host of TAG.GD managers, were all in attendance.
