Davos, Switzerland | January 20, 2026 — The International Free Zone Authority (IFZA) has entered into a strategic collaboration with Aleria to advance the application of artificial intelligence across IFZA's operating model and digital services.
The collaboration was formalised at IHC House in Davos during the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2026. With more than 80,000 registered companies, IFZA is one of the largest free zone authorities globally.
Applying AI as Operating Infrastructure
Aleria will support IFZA in deploying its AI operating system and intelligence layer across selected digital services and internal workflows, enabling structured data use, real-time insight generation, and decision support.
IFZA AI Super App and Digital Services
IFZA will explore the development of an AI-enabled digital platform providing unified access to services, communications, and operational intelligence. Powered by Aleria's platform, the initiative supports automation, predictive analytics, and responsive service delivery.
Governance, Sovereignty, and Data Control
A core principle of the collaboration is sovereignty. IFZA will retain control over its data and digital infrastructure, ensuring AI systems operate within defined governance and compliance boundaries.
Executive Intelligence and Decision Support
IFZA will deploy executive-level intelligence tools designed to provide near real-time visibility into operational performance, trends, and strategic indicators.
This collaboration represents a step toward building long-term digital capability rather than short-term experimentation.
