Tencent Cloud announced new partnerships with regional companies Alsaif Gallery, Hoolive, OmniOps and TruKKer at the Tencent Global Digital Ecosystem Summit in Riyadh. The announcement underscores the company’s focus on international growth.

Tencent said its active overseas customer base doubled over the past year. Its international AI business recorded triple-digit growth, driven by demand for its agentic AI solutions. The company also increased its cloud infrastructure capacity in Riyadh.

Tencent shares rose 3.18% in early trading on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. The gain was seen as a constructive indicator for related companies Naspers and Prosus.
