RIYADH: Over 40 Saudi tech firms are exhibiting at GITEX GLOBAL 2025 in Dubai, reflecting the Kingdom’s drive to boost non-oil exports and advance its digital economy goals.
The delegation, organized by the Saudi Export Development Authority, is exhibiting under the “Saudi Technology” banner at the five-day event, which runs from Oct. 13 to 17. Participants include firms from the communications and information technology sectors, alongside several government entities.
GITEX, held at the Dubai World Trade Center, features more than 6,800 exhibitors, 2,000 startups, and delegations from over 180 countries, according to the Emirates News Agency.
Saudi Arabia’s presence aligns with Vision 2030, the Kingdom’s economic diversification plan, which targets a larger contribution from non-oil sectors to gross domestic product and aims to position Saudi companies as key players in global innovation supply chains.
“This participation comes as an extension of Saudi Exports’ efforts to enhance the presence of national companies in global markets, and expand the scope of their exports in the growing technical sectors,” the authority said.
