Persivia Inc., a US-based pioneer in AI-powered healthcare intelligence, has announced a bold expansion into Saudi Arabia with the launch of its regional headquarters and Center of AI Excellence in Riyadh, positioning the Kingdom as a global hub for exporting world-class health AI software and innovation.
This milestone marks a defining moment for Saudi Arabia, where Vision 2030’s bold aspirations converge with world-class innovation to shape the future of intelligent healthcare. Persivia’s strategic investment strengthens the Kingdom’s commitment to building a sustainable, data-driven healthcare economy powered by AI, local talent, and technology transfer. At the heart of this expansion lies the Persivia Academy for Health AI, a first-of-its-kind initiative to train Saudi clinicians, data scientists, and digital health professionals in advanced AI, population health analytics, and value-based care models, cultivating the Kingdom’s next generation of health AI leaders.
“Saudi Arabia is emerging as one of the world’s most forward-thinking healthcare innovation hubs,” said Dr. Mansoor Khan, CEO of Persivia. “Our investment in Saudi Arabia goes beyond expansion, it’s a true partnership to co-create the future of healthcare. Together, we will build a smart, secure, and sovereign health ecosystem that protects national data, empowers local innovators, and redefines care for generations to come.”
Persivia’s new regional hub, fully licensed by the Saudi Ministry of Investment, will serve as a bridge between the US and Saudi healthcare ecosystems. The regional center of excellence will lead initiatives in digital transformation, interoperability, AI governance, and performance analytics, while developing next-generation generative AI and data intelligence frameworks aligned with international standards.
Persivia’s flagship CareSpace platform, the foundation of its digital health ecosystem, connects with more than 3,000 healthcare data sources, including EHRs, IoMT devices, labs, payers, and public health systems, to provide a comprehensive longitudinal view of every patient. The company serves more than 200 hospitals and manages over 160 million patient records across 46 US states.
“CareSpace is an open, interoperable ecosystem that attracts global device manufacturers and digital health innovators to invest and localize operations in Saudi Arabia,” added Dr. Khan. “These capabilities strengthen the region’s digital health infrastructure and position the Kingdom as a hub for AI-driven healthcare manufacturing and IoMT innovation.”
This investment is poised to deliver transformative benefits across Saudi Arabia and the wider MENA region, lowering healthcare costs, strengthening preventive care, and accelerating the Kingdom’s transition to value-based care.
Aligned with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030, Persivia is helping build an AI-driven, sovereign, and globally connected healthcare ecosystem, advancing Saudi Arabia’s leadership in health AI and value-based care innovation..
