The Saudi Authority for Industrial Cities and Technology Zones (MODON) has achieved a significant milestone by securing five leading regional awards in human resources development and women's empowerment for 2024, highlighting the authority's commitment to fostering a creative and inspiring work environment, reported the Saudi Press Agency on Monday.
MODON was named the "Preferred Employer" of the year and recognized for having the "Best Leadership Development" program in 2024. Additionally, the authority came first as the best government agency promoting "Innovation in Employee Engagement" in the public and government sector across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region.
MODON also achieved second place in the "Innovation and Excellence in Employee Experience" category and third place for its efforts to "Support and Empower Women."
The awards were announced during the HR Awards ceremony, part of the HR Summit Middle East Edition held in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The event took place as part of the 12th GCC GOV HR Summit 2024.
Since its founding in 2001, MODON has focused on developing and managing industrial cities and technology zones in line with Saudi Arabia's national priorities. The authority works closely with both public and private sectors to drive industrial growth.
As a result, the area of developed land in 36 industrial cities across the Kingdom has expanded to more than 209 million square meters, accommodating 6,882 industrial facilities and 436 logistics facilities.
MODON's vision is to be the preferred destination for investment growth and the primary partner for the industrial and technology sectors in Saudi Arabia, positioning itself as a leader in innovation and workforce development.
