The Lebanese Ministry of State for Technology and Artificial Intelligence has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Oracle, launching a large-scale national training program to build digital and artificial intelligence skills among Lebanese citizens.

According to the National News Agency (NNA), the agreement aims to train 50,000 Lebanese in key digital fields, including cloud computing, programming, and artificial intelligence, through specialized programs delivered in partnership with higher education institutions in Lebanon.
