Via AI, data management, and analytics
e& Enterprise, a UAE-headquartered state-owned provider of transformative digital services, has selected Cloudera, a US-based global leader in hybrid data management, to boost digital transformation in the Middle East by integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced data management capabilities in a rapidly evolving regional digital landscape.
The two entities have strategically formalised a partnership at GITEX Global 2024 in Dubai in mid-October, which was signed into effect by Karim Azar, Regional Vice President of the Middle East, Turkey at Cloudera, and Amit Gupta, Head of Data and AI Practice, e& enterprise.
By combining their expertise, the two entities will leverage advanced AI, data management, and analytics to foster innovation, support business growth, and enhance operational efficiency for regional industries. Their primary focus will be on improving customer experiences and boosting productivity.
The collaboration will help organisations in key sectors, including telecom, healthcare, finance, and government, to improve productivity, customer satisfaction, and overall business performance.
At the core of this partnership is the goal of providing AI-powered solutions tailored to the specific needs of Middle Eastern industries. These solutions will empower businesses to enhance operations, optimise decision-making, and improve performance across sectors.
For instance, AI-powered solutions will streamline healthcare operations, reduce administrative burdens, and improve patient care. At the same time, predictive analytics will help financial institutions make more informed decisions, such as identifying potential market opportunities and better managing risks.
Azar said: “Our partnership with e& Enterprise signifies more than a technological collaboration. It’s about enabling organisations across the Middle East to unlock the full potential of their data.
“By combining our robust data management capabilities with e& Enterprise’s deep industry expertise, we are helping businesses navigate their digital transformation and equipping them with the tools to thrive in a data-driven future. This is about creating smarter, more agile organisations that can make faster, informed decisions to fuel innovation and sustainable growth,” Azar stated.
Gupta noted: “At e& Enterprise, we believe in the power of data and AI to shape the future of business. Our collaboration with Cloudera is driven by a shared vision to bring cutting-edge, scalable solutions to the region, helping companies turn complex data into actionable insights.
“By leveraging AI in telecom, healthcare, and finance sectors, we are solving immediate challenges and enabling long-term growth and innovation. Together, we’re creating a digital ecosystem where businesses can accelerate their transformation and remain resilient in an ever-evolving marketplace,” Gupta said.
