MGX's $50 Billion Raise Sets Up One of the Biggest AI Funds Ever

MGX just raised $50B for global AI infrastructure.

And the minimum ticket to participate is $500M.

The Abu Dhabi-based powerhouse, chaired by HH Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan and backed by Mubadala and G42, just built one of the largest AI war chests on earth.

- Global investment mandate for AI infrastructure
- Chips, data centres, semiconductors, AI models
- Already invested in OpenAI, xAI, and Anthropic
- Stargate Project (with OpenAI, SoftBank & Oracle)
- $20B DayOne acquisition reportedly in the pipeline
- Part of the $40B Aligned Data Centres acquisition
- Building 1GW+ AI factories in France with Mistral
- Targeting $10B deployed annually going forward

MGX is building the infrastructure directly (chips, compute, power, data centres) rather than renting it from hyperscalers.

Abu Dhabi wants to own the physical and financial layers underneath every major AI bet on the planet.

The UAE is playing to win in the AI race.

What does that mean for the industry?
