NEOM, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia – NEOM Investment Fund (NIF), the investment arm of NEOM, has announced a strategic investment in MemryX, a US-based leader in Edge AI semiconductor solutions. The partnership will accelerate the development and deployment of next-generation, energy-efficient edge AI accelerators, which are critical to enabling the responsive and high-privacy intelligent digital infrastructure powering NEOM.

Majid Mufti, CEO of NIF, commented: “Our investment in MemryX marks another pivotal step toward realising NEOM’s vision of an AI-native, energy-efficient future. It also reflects our commitment to backing transformative, next-generation technologies that will define the new era of intelligent digital infrastructure. Through our partnership with MemryX, a stellar fabless innovator, we are accelerating the deployment of advanced computing at scale, while laying the groundwork for a new digital economy.”

Peter Watson, Head of Infrastructure Strategy, NEOM’s Tech & Digital Sector, said: “MemryX’s breakthrough approach to Edge AI allows us to process vast volumes of video data locally, significantly reducing our dependency on centralised infrastructure and limited bandwidth. This unlocks smarter, more efficient systems across NEOM’s digital ecosystem.  We’re excited to partner with MemryX as they continue to shape the future of AI and computing at the edge.”

The partnership with MemryX is part of NIF’s expanding portfolio of investments, underscoring its role as a strategic investor and ecosystem developer.
