At the Digital Technology Forum, Minister of Communications and Information Technology and Chairman of the Communications, Space, and Technology Commission (CST) Eng. Abdullah Alswaha awarded Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) for introducing its Saudi Made servers from Riyadh’s regional production site and its plans for global export in collaboration with Alfanar.
Vice Minister Eng. Haitham Al-Ohali and CST Governor Dr. Mohammed Al-Tamimi attended the ceremony.
According to a press release from CST, this initiative bolsters Saudi Arabia’s leadership position in technology manufacturing and enhances the efficiency of the national infrastructure in achieving the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030.
The recognition stems from CST’s role in enhancing the value of local tech products, promoting the position of local tech companies and products locally and globally, and increasing the percentage of tech product exports to priority markets.
HPE has launched its first Saudi Made servers in partnership with alfanar as
part of its strategy to increase server production for local and regional clients and provide advanced Saudi-made solutions which will enhance the Kingdom’s position as a regional hub to meet the needs of local and regional tech markets, support global supply chains, and meet the increasing need for reliable technologies.
HPE’s locally manufactured products will feature the “Saudi Tech” logo, which is a national identity under the Saudi Made Program aiming to help local tech products and promote their position locally and globally in collaboration between the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology, the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, the Communications, Space and Technology Commission, Saudi Exports Development Authority and the Local Content and Government Procurement Authority.
