G42 and Credo AI Advance Responsible AI in Emerging Markets
The G42 Credo AI partnership marks a significant step toward scaling Responsible AI adoption across the Global South. G42 and Credo AI signed a memorandum of understanding during the India AI Impact Summit 2026 in New Delhi.
Through this collaboration, both organizations aim to move Responsible AI from principle-based commitments to operational practice. As AI adoption accelerates worldwide, emerging markets require adaptable governance models that reflect diverse regulations, institutional capacities, and societal priorities.
From AI Principles to Practical Governance
The G42 Credo AI partnership focuses on embedding trust directly into AI systems. According to G42 leadership, innovation and governance must advance together. When organizations engineer trust from the start, deployment becomes smoother and large-scale adoption accelerates.
Similarly, Credo AI emphasizes measurable governance frameworks. Enterprises scaling AI systems need both speed and control. Therefore, the collaboration will support practical governance structures, risk monitoring tools, and education programs tailored for the Middle East and other Global South regions.
Strengthening Global AI Governance Leadership
Over the years, G42 has demonstrated leadership in Responsible AI initiatives. The company launched the Responsible AI Future Foundation with Microsoft and introduced its Frontier AI Safety Framework. In addition, it participates in global efforts such as the World Economic Forum AI Governance Alliance and the Bletchley Declaration.
Meanwhile, Credo AI pioneered the AI governance category in 2020. It built the industry’s first continuous, contextual AI governance platform and developed a large repository of codified AI policies and regulatory mappings. Today, Fortune 500 companies use its platform to align with frameworks such as the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and ISO/IEC 42001.
Driving Responsible AI Across the Global South
Importantly, the G42 Credo AI partnership aligns with the broader mission of the India AI Impact Summit. The initiative seeks to translate AI progress into real-world economic and societal benefits.
Going forward, the collaboration will explore scalable governance models that enable organizations to deploy AI confidently and responsibly. By combining operational expertise with governance innovation, G42 and Credo AI aim to position emerging markets as leaders in trusted AI adoption.
