Saudi Arabia: Zain KSA, a leading telecommunications provider in Saudi Arabia, signed an agreement with its global partner Huawei to expand and develop its cloud and digital services infrastructure. The announcement was made on the sidelines of the global future technologies event LEAP 2022. Zain KSA participated in line with its strategy to support the efforts and initiatives of the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT), overseeing and organizing the landmark event.
Being a key player in the Saudi telecom market, the cooperation with Huawei comes as part of Zain KSA’s efforts to strengthen its leadership as one of the largest 5G providers in the Kingdom and invest in industry digitization.

Zain KSA continues to enhance its wireless network, the foundation of its 5G target network infrastructure and the first phase of its 5G non-standalone network. Following will be the transition to the 5G standalone phase, which will boost the ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC) application development and support the massive requirements of Machine Type Communications (mMTC), to enable a new range of vertical services for industry digitalization. Zain KSA already offers a full suite of 5G-based solutions including Zain Drones and Zain Cloud, as well as a range of other services catering to individual and business users.
