Aramco Digital has been granted a license by the Communications, Space, and Technology Commission (CST) to provide specialized wireless telecommunication services, fostering the adoption of IoT, automation, and digital transformation across various key sectors in Saudi Arabia.
This new license allows Aramco Digital to offer tailored wireless services and applications for sectors including manufacturing, oil and gas, petrochemicals, transportation, tourism, logistics, and business. By facilitating the adoption of smart applications and automating operations, this initiative positions Saudi Arabia as a leader in specialized communication services.
The license was presented by H.E. Dr. Mohammed Altamimi, Governor of CST, to Eng. Amin H. Nasser, CEO of Saudi Aramco, during the Future Investment Initiative Conference.
With this license, an enabling environment will be created to support the adoption of emerging technologies for specialized wireless networks, promote investments in digital infrastructure, and accelerate digital transformation in crucial sectors across the Kingdom.
It’s notable that CST announced on June 6, 2024, that the Board of Directors had approved Aramco Digital’s qualification to obtain the Specialized Wireless Network Provision License.
