Strategic partnership aims to accelerate cloud adoption, innovation, and digital transformation across key sectors in the region
In a landmark move set to redefine the digital landscape of the Middle East, Deloitte Middle East and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have announced a bold expansion of their strategic alliance. The two global powerhouses aim to deliver $1 billion worth of digital services by 2030, underscoring their commitment to driving innovation, economic diversification, and tech-led transformation across the region.
The ambitious initiative, unveiled this week, will focus on accelerating cloud adoption and enabling businesses, governments, and organizations to leverage next-generation technologies across key sectors such as energy, financial services, public sector, healthcare, and retail. By combining Deloitte’s deep industry knowledge and consulting capabilities with AWS’s powerful cloud infrastructure, the partnership promises to empower clients with scalable, secure, and future-ready solutions.
“This alliance marks a significant step forward in our shared vision to help the Middle East become a global hub of digital innovation,” said Mutasem Dajani, CEO of Deloitte Middle East. “Together with AWS, we are committed to shaping a smarter, more resilient digital future for the region.”
The partnership also supports national transformation agendas such as Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and the UAE’s Digital Economy Strategy by addressing the increasing demand for cloud services, advanced analytics, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence solutions.
As part of the alliance, Deloitte plans to expand its regional talent base by hiring and upskilling thousands of professionals with AWS certifications and cloud-focused capabilities. This investment in local expertise will be instrumental in delivering on the alliance’s goal to build agile, tech-driven enterprises that are prepared to navigate and lead in a digital-first world.
Neil Glentworth, Director at AWS, commented, “This alliance reinforces AWS’s commitment to the Middle East and our belief in its potential as a digital powerhouse. By collaborating with Deloitte, we’re helping organizations reimagine what’s possible and turn ambitious goals into transformative realities.”
With digital transformation becoming an essential pillar of long-term economic growth, this $1 billion alliance stands as one of the most significant regional commitments to date — one that has the potential to shape industries, empower workforces, and create a more connected, innovative Middle East.
