O3ai Showcases Next-Gen AI-Powered Manufacturing at Snowflake’s Data for Breakfast in Riyadh
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – May 1, 2025

O3ai, the next-generation smart factory platform, participated in Snowflake’s flagship Data for Breakfast event held at the Crowne Plaza Riyadh RDC Hotel & Convention Center, showcasing how AI and data can accelerate industrial transformation across the Kingdom.

Representing O3ai on stage was Tarik Taman, General Manager, who delivered a keynote titled “Advancing AI in Manufacturing: The Road Ahead.” His session emphasized the urgent need to move beyond legacy MES systems and highlighted how O3ai is pioneering a modular, AI-first approach to Manufacturing Operations Management (MOM).

“The industry is ready — and the technology is here. It’s time to reimagine how factories think, learn, and act,” said Tarik Taman during his presentation, as he unveiled how O3ai integrates Generative AI, Agentic AI, and Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud to deliver measurable operational outcomes.

His session focused on how O3ai integrates GenAI into core manufacturing operations, enabling capabilities such as:

• Autonomous KPI management and root cause analysis
• Smart co-pilots for operator support and decision guidance
• Predictive models for maintenance and quality optimization

During the session, O3ai presented a real-world success story from the Flexible Packaging sector, where the platform enabled:

• 10% increase in Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)
• 30% reduction in micro-stoppages
• 80% faster quality control analysis time — reduced from 300 to 60 minutes

O3ai’s solution stack is built around edge intelligence, real-time data collection, and AI-driven process optimization, offering full integration across ERP, MES, IIoT, and cloud infrastructure. Its partnership with Snowflake allows manufacturers to unlock enterprise-wide insights, activate AI use cases, and align with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 through scalable, secure data strategies.

The event also featured presentations from Foodics, and insights from industry analysts citing that:
