Hewlett-Packard (HP) has announced a series of strategic investments aimed at boosting Saudi Arabia’s technology industry and bringing education opportunities to Saudi citizens – aligned with Saudi Arabia’s 2030 Vision.
The investments, announced at LEAP 2025, include the establishment of a manufacturing facility in Riyadh and an AI and R&D Centre of Excellence in Dhahran, a pivotal step on its mission to provide regional businesses with cutting-edge solutions.
Building on its role as a trusted education custodian in the region, HP has also introduced numerous education programmes and partnerships designed to empower Saudi Arabia’s next generation for a brighter future.
“At HP, we see tremendous potential in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and have made strategic AI investments to fuel further growth in the region”, said Enrique Lores, president and CEO of HP. “Building on our trusted brand and the strength of our portfolio, we are committing to manufacturing, education and research initiatives that drive innovation and help expand HP’s global reach, bringing even greater opportunity to the MEA region.”
HP is steadily strengthening its footprint across the Middle East and Africa with the launch of a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. HP remains laser focused on meeting its customers’ needs with flexibility and reliability, and the “Made in Saudi” initiative enables a better, more customised experience for consumers, the company said.
The kingdom’s unique geographical position connecting three continents – Asia, Europe, and Africa – offers unparalleled access to diverse markets. This enables efficient distribution and positions the kingdom as a central hub for technology innovation and trade, it said.
