At the Economy Middle East Summit 2026, during the panel “AI & technology: New infrastructure reshaping business,” Tariq Al Wahedi, Group CEO of 7X, highlighted how enterprises are still navigating the early stages of AI adoption and redefining how the technology should be integrated into business models.
Al Wahedi noted that many organizations continue to approach AI primarily as a tool to replace specific skills and roles, while the real opportunity lies in understanding where AI can create long-term strategic value.
He also emphasized that infrastructure is increasingly emerging as a key bottleneck as governments and companies accelerate their AI ambitions.
