Kountifi Innovations Launches in GCC to Lead the AI Agents Revolution and Drive Outcome-Driven Digital Transformation

Dubai, UAE – 13-May-2025 — As the GCC accelerates its Vision 2030 and 2050 ambitions, AI Agents are rapidly emerging as the new digital workforce that will transform how industries operate, how citizens interact with services, and how governments deliver on their promises of efficiency and innovation.

At the helm of this movement is Kountifi Innovations, a pioneering AI Agents company founded by Khalid Shaikh, the celebrated entrepreneur behind Prognica Labs, known for disrupting the healthcare AI space in early detection and diagnosis of Breast Cancer.

With Kountifi, Khalid is now leading the charge to bring enterprise-grade, outcome-driven AI Agents to the GCC markets, helping businesses, governments, and industries reimagine workflows, automate decisions, and unlock unprecedented productivity gains.

According to PwC Middle East, AI is expected to contribute up to USD 320 billion to the Middle East economy by 2030, with the GCC accounting for more than 70% of this impact. The UAE alone is forecasted to see AI contribute 14% to its GDP by 2030, while Saudi Arabia is poised for an even larger 12.4% uplift, making the region a global hotspot for AI investment and adoption.

However, most enterprises still struggle with legacy systems, fragmented data, and slow digital adoption, leaving an urgent gap for AI Agents to step in as the next-generation digital workforce—one that automates decisions, enhances customer experience, and reduces operational costs.

Kountifi’s approach is anchored in:

• Domain-specific AI Agents for healthcare, fintech, logistics, retail, government services, and enterprise operations.
• Outcome-driven implementations, focusing on measurable business KPIs, not tech experimentation.
• Founder-led credibility, where Khalid’s proven leadership and deep GCC network accelerate adoption, trust, and scale.

“AI Agents are no longer a distant concept—they are ready to drive real business outcomes today,” said Khalid Shaikh, Founder of Kountifi Innovations.
“At Kountifi, we are bringing AI Agents into the heart of organizations across healthcare, fintech, retail, government, and enterprise operations, ensuring that GCC businesses are not just AI-ready, but AI-powered.”

Kountifi is actively engaging with government bodies and enterprises in UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar to deploy PoCs, AI Agent pilots, and innovation labs, enabling organizations to experience firsthand the productivity, compliance, and customer satisfaction gains enabled by AI Agents.

“Our goal is to make the GCC a global showcase for AI Agents driving national visions, business transformation, and societal impact,” said Khalid Shaikh.
