Microsoft to invest $1.5 billion in Emirati AI firm G42, takes minority stake
G42 and Azure have collaborated multiple times over the last year, and G42 said it would use Microsoft's Azure data centers as part of its AI infrastructure to boost regional adoption.
G42 had divested its investments in China and began the lengthy task of pulling out Chinese hardware amid U.S. concerns over its relationship with Chinese businesses. (Image credit: Reuters)
