Introducing the inaugural Smart Cities Saudi Summit, a pivotal event designed to propel Saudi Arabia's urban landscape into the future with a focus on cognitive city concepts. As the Kingdom embraces a transformative era of growth and development, the Saudi Smart Cities Summit will play a crucial role in leveraging advanced technologies to enhance and modernize Saudi Arabia.

The Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs (MOMRA) launched the nationā€™s first Smart Cities program, selecting 17 cities that represent about 72% of the Kingdomā€™s population. This effort is supported by a US$500 billion investment focused on modernizing the infrastructure across 285 municipalities.

By bringing together thought leaders and industry experts, the Smart Cities Saudi Summit creates a vibrant ecosystem for collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and strategic partnerships, all centered around the concept of cognitive city innovation. Participants will gain valuable insights into emerging trends, disruptive technologies, and successful case studies that have the potential to revolutionize the future of cities in Saudi Arabia.
