Last update: 6 hours ago

Kuwait Defense Tech: HGH will equip Kuwait Navy’s Al Dorra offshore patrol vessels with SPYNEL 360-degree infrared surveillance, boosting persistent wide-area detection of vessels and drones and feeding into Leonardo’s combat management system. Digital Security & FinTech: AZ eWallet (licensed by the Central Bank of Kuwait) is using Shufti for automated KYC with liveness checks to speed onboarding while strengthening AML compliance. Kuwait Finance: NBK was named a Kuwait FinTech market leader by The Fintech Times, highlighting its role in building the tech foundations for digital banking growth. Geopolitics Impacting Tech & Trade: US-Iran indirect talks in Doha ended without major breakthroughs, keeping Strait of Hormuz navigation and regional shipping risk in focus. Maritime & Energy Markets: Oil is stabilizing but upside is capped by demand uncertainty and expected supply increases, with easing Middle East risk reducing the geopolitical premium. Local Tech Culture: Sony’s move to end physical disc releases for new PlayStation games by Jan 2028 is sparking debate in Kuwait about the future of the Rihab Complex and the shift to fully digital gaming.
