Salam, one of Saudi Arabia’s leading telecom companies, wowed e-sports enthusiasts at Comic Con Arabia, which took place between Oct.20 – 22 in Jeddah, offering a one-of-a-kind gaming experience.
Being the official e-sport and technology host at the event, Salam gave the gaming community in the Kingdom a memorable experience for all attendees as it implemented competitive tournaments for seasoned gamers, in addition to tactical, smaller tournaments for amateur gamers.

Salam’s focus on gamers in Saudi Arabia, currently home to 23.5 million gaming enthusiasts, led to the creation of its “Gamers League’”where gamers were invited to compete in a series of gaming competitions and win valuable prizes.
Salam’s dedicated “Gamer” package is the first of its kind in the Kingdom and accommodates the growing community of amateur and professional gamers.
The package includes top-of-the-range routers providing unprecedented internet connectivity with upload speeds of up to 150 Mbps and download speeds of up to 300 Mbps.
