Humain, the state-owned AI company from Saudi Arabia, is on track to launch a $10 billion venture fund, Humain Ventures, that will invest in startups in the U.S., Europe and Asia, The Financial Times reported, quoting Tareq Amin, Humain’s CEO.

Humain is in talks with U.S. firms like Andreessen Horowitz, OpenAI and Elon Musk’s xAI about its plans, and is also exploring a deal with U.S. companies to sell an equity stake in its data center business, the report said.

Amin did not reveal which these companies are, but said some are “massive names in the data center segment,” according to the report.

Humain was launched earlier this month ahead of a visit by U.S. President Donald Trump and several tech industry allies. Under a new Trump administration initiative, U.S. tech suppliers, including Nvidia and AMD, have been allowed to arrange deals with Saudi Arabian firms.
