🎙️ GULF AI VOICES PODCAST

Real conversations about Gulf AI.

Not another tech podcast. Gulf AI Voices features the leaders buying, deploying, and living with AI across the Gulf — the real stories behind the headlines.

The Concept

  • Hosted by Mo Gawdat — former Chief Business Officer of Google X, bestselling author, AI thought leader
  • Guests are Gulf org leaders — the buyers, not the experts. CTOs, ministers, CEOs who are making AI decisions
  • 45 minutes, unscripted — long enough to go deep, short enough to finish on a commute
  • English + Arabic — bilingual conversations reflecting the real Gulf
