September 18 - September 19
Saudi Arabia has been on a turbocharged ’everything digital’ journey. The Kingdom’s leaders have been closely working with private and public sector entities to meet their ambitious goals and objectives, fulfil the Vision 2030 strategy, and execute multiple giga projects. Moreover, many leading organizations in Saudi Arabia are already exploring and investing in generative AI (GenAI) use cases. IDC believes that these organizations need to be ready for an “AI Everywhere” world in the future. IDC forecasts that annual spending on AI-centric systems worldwide will surpass $300 billion by 2026, while ICT spending in Saudi Arabia will exceed $36.6 billion by 2024.
