Saudi Arabia urges Gulf digital unity
Saudi Arabia focused on promoting sustainable digital connectivity among Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries with the aim of enhancing computing capabilities, localizing data, and boosting the global competitiveness of Gulf companies. The Kingdom proposed establishing a shared digital connectivity network similar to the Gulf electrical interconnection project, to support digital resilience and the integration of energy and computing. This includes increasing international link capacities to over 8.4 terabits per second and expanding the capacity to 18 terabits per second. Additionally, efforts were made to facilitate electrical power sites totaling up to 14 gigawatts for data centers, along with a call to develop sustainable cooperation models, open markets, and establish standards for global competition. These initiatives aim to strengthen the region’s position in the digital economy and improve its global competitiveness.
