Jeddah has emerged as a critical hub for serving our customers and we look forward to helping them to accelerate digital transformation and benefit businesses, users, and society.”

We’re already seeing demand for networking in and out of Jeddah and see it as a strategic location for expanding our footprint. This is the beginning of our next wave of growth and we’re very proud to be kicking this off in the KSA.”
