Cisco Welcomes U.S. Government's Approval of Chip Exports to G42

The U.S. government's authorization of advanced AI chips for G42 is a key milestone in this partnership that accelerates our shared goal of building secure, trusted, high-performance AI infrastructure in the UAE and around the world.

This approval deepens Cisco's longstanding partnership with G42, including our work on Stargate UAE and the G42, Cisco and AMD collaboration. As technology integrator within G42's Regulated Technology Environment, Cisco remains committed to working closely with all partners to ensure secure, compliant deployment that supports a resilient and globally connected AI ecosystem.

"The White House's decision to grant chip exports to @G42 will help accelerate secure, AI infrastructure that connect people and businesses across the UAE and the wider region. We're grateful for the Administration's trust as we work with our partners to build a more resilient and inclusive digital future, supporting the global leadership of the American AI technology stack." - Chuck Robbins, Chair and CEO of Cisco

We look forward to continuing this collaboration to deliver next-generation secure, AI infrastructure at unprecedented scale and performance, advancing G42's ambitions and the UAE-U.S. AI corridor.
