With the economic diversification plans
in place, key government authorities across kingdom are emphasizing on
providing the best quality of life for their citizens, which means
seamless transportation, state-of-the-art healthcare facilities, round
the clock security, affordable housing and most importantly creating
citizen centric cities. Having realized that, the citizen centric
cities can only be created through better urban planning and connected
infrastructures using a combination of friendly policies,
state-of-the-art technologies and good governance.
Acting on the Kingdom’s Vision 2030, the Kingdom will be investing over
US$ 500 billion into modernizing its infrastructure across the 285
municipalities to provide the best quality of life for their citizens
on par with global standards and the major contributor towards these
milestones would be the Smart Technologies.
With the responsibility of developing urban infrastructure and creating
citizen centric cities, the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs
(MOMRA), which is the governing body of all the municipalities across
the Kingdom is hosting the First Saudi Smart Cities 2017 conference
from 16-18 May at the Intercontinental Hotel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The Conference will be convened under the gracious patronage of the
Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs. It is, with the accompanying
Exhibition, the first of its kind in the Kingdom which will feature
over 1000+ attendees from across the Kingdom and abroad who are and
will be involved in the Smart Cities project, and also feature
presentation on best practices in Smart Cities from over 20+ countries.
Since technology is the major enabler for the success any smart city,
leading solution providers both local and international will be
showcasing their strengths and capabilities to help the Kingdom reach
their ultimate goals.
It is worth mentioning the Conference is jointly organized by Dar Al
Riyadh – a company head quartered in Saudi Arabia with capabilities in
Development of Smart Cities Profiles, Urban Planning, Infrastructure
Design, GIS Services, Transportation Planning, and Smart Applications,
and Nispana Innovative Platforms – a company head quartered in India,
with offices in Dubai and USA, is a leading Business Intelligence firm
