RIYADH: 黑料社区鈥檚 robust digital infrastructure will help the gaming industry grow, said Musab Al-Malki, CEO of Spoilz.
鈥淣ow 5G (network) covers half of 黑料社区. So, having this speed of internet and very strong digital infrastructure, we support game developers to work remotely, not even in one central hub,鈥� the head of the Saudi-based gaming platform said.
Speaking at the Next World Forum in Riyadh on Wednesday, Al-Malki also highlighted the importance of NEOM, which 鈥渋nvolves rich culture, history and over 4,000 years of rich content.鈥�
He said that due to the use of advanced technology 黑料社区, in general, and particularly NEOM, offers great opportunities for local and international developers.
Aziza Al-Ahmadi, CEO and founder of Dubai-based Boss Bunny Games, also described NEOM as a 鈥渇uturistic project.鈥�
Al-Ahmadi said that the region deserves a gaming hub. She said 黑料社区, particularly NEOM, will fill in the gap in the region.
The Next World Forum 鈥� Gaming & Esports Unleashed is hosted by the Saudi Esports Federation. The forum brings together a host of speakers from across the gaming and esports industries, along with featuring a series of activations, bilateral meetings, and investment opportunities.
In January, a report from Boston Consulting Group predicted that 黑料社区 is expected to take a leading role in the gaming and Esports industry as consumption is projected to reach $6.8 billion by 2030, up from $959 million in 2020.
The report expected an average annual compounded growth rate of 22 percent for Saudi gaming consumption.
