Vision 2030’s pace has intensified a hard gap in specialist skills, making rapid and compliant recruitment a strategic necessity rather than a back‑office task. Benchmarks from KSA programs show AI‑enabled hiring routinely compresses cycle times by 50 - 70%.

At the Agentic AI Forum, Jorg Schubert - Partner at McKinsey & Company and Head of McKinsey Center for Government in the Middle East - shared insights that perfectly captured why our 1,000 AI graduates matter so much. Key takeaways: 🔍 Skills Gap: 65% of businesses claim tech knowledge will be critical over the next decade, yet 90% don't have the right skills for their strategy. 📊 AI Adoption: 75% of MENA companies are already using AI and GenAI in 2025 - more than 50% report advanced technology as a major business trend. 🎓 Education: Almost 50% of students feel they are not well equipped for labor market realities. Complementing formal education with AI courses isn't nice-to-have - it's absolutely critical. What struck me most: Jorg emphasized that taking AI courses shows "initiative taking, intellectual curiosity, and grit" - exactly the qualities employers need. His message to Saudi Arabia: "Saudi is well-positioned with fast economic growth, young demographics, and investments in human capital. The mistake would be not embracing the technological revolution out of fear." This is exactly what we're witnessing - 1,000 graduates who didn't just take courses, but built working AI agents. They're not just learning about the future; they're building it. Jorg's insight on employer engagement resonated deeply: Training works when employers actively define skills needed and provide opportunities - which is exactly what we're facilitating between our graduates and Saudi's startup ecosystem. When global workforce experts validate your local impact, you know the transformation is real. 🇸🇦 What workforce transformations are you seeing in your industry?

1,000 AI graduates. AI agents. One early believer who helped make it possible. Our Agentic AI Forum celebration was about vision becoming reality. Dr. Mohammed AlShaibi believed in Kanz when we were just an idea. AlShaibi's early vision: "Building Saudi's AI workforce isn't just about training - it's about creating the foundation for economic transformation." The full circle moment: Our graduates are now building AI solutions for the same enterprise sectors that Dr. AlShaibi transforms through Tamkeen Technologies, one of Saudi's most successful semi-governmental IT entities. Why his support was game-changing: - PhD in Computer Engineering + 9 years leading digital transformation - Deal Committee Member at Riyadh Angel Investors - Deep understanding of Saudi's tech ecosystem and government needs From believing in us at day one to witnessing graduates who can serve his clients - that's the strategic thinking driving Vision 2030 forward. Thank you, Dr. AlShaibi, for seeing the potential before the proof.

As we celebrate 1,000 AI graduates, one person deserves special recognition: Salam Hassan - our lead AI trainer who made this transformation possible. Why Salam was the perfect fit for this program: 🚀 NASA Pedigree: Former Software Engineer at NASA Ames Research Center - he's literally built systems for space exploration 🏥 Enterprise Scale: 12+ years as Product Security Lead at Kaiser Permanente - he knows what works in real organizations 🎓 Academic Excellence: UC Berkeley College of Engineering MS in Computer Science - the technical depth to teach fundamentals properly 🔒 Current Edge: IT Audit Manager at EMKAN with latest Stanford certifications in cryptography and web application security What made Salam special as our trainer: ✅ He didn't just teach tools - he taught thinking. ✅ He met people where they were. He guided non-CS majors from zero to building working AI systems. ✅ He demanded excellence. By month 3, his students were asking about model optimization and performance tuning. That's when you know the learning went deep. His philosophy that shaped our program: "AI democratizes creation, but it doesn't eliminate the need for systematic thinking." The result? 1,000 graduates who didn't just get certificates - they built 20 market-ready AI agents and are now actively developing solutions for Saudi startups and enterprises. Thank you, Salam, for elevating not just our program, but an entire generation of Saudi AI builders. 🇸🇦

Meet Abeer AL-Hashimi our Growth Advisor and one of Saudi Arabia's most respected transformation leaders. At the Agentic AI forum, Abeer shared the value of Abeer's guidance is game-changing: ✅ Angel investor in 5 companies + founder of 2 - she knows what works ✅ 20+ years leading strategic transformations ✅ Oxford-educated strategist with deep local market knowledge ✅ Advisor by Saudi Ministry of Commerce in Management & Technology ✅ Member of National Committee for Sustainability and Green Economy "The real transformation isn't just in teaching people AI - it's in building an ecosystem where that knowledge creates lasting economic impact." That's exactly what we witnessed yesterday. 1,000 graduates who didn't just learn AI theory - they built 20 working AI agents and are ready to transform Saudi's tech landscape. Grateful to have Abeer guiding our growth as we help build Saudi's AI workforce. 🇸🇦 What transformation leaders inspire you in your industry?
