KSA: Qiddiya Announces Progress, Readiness of New Offices Complex

The Qiddiya Development, the developmental branch of Qiddiya Investment, announced the readiness of the first part of its new offices complex ahead of schedule.

Qiddiya Development is tasked with designing and operating the largest entertainment giant complex for sports, arts, and entertainment in the region.

This progress comes in the midst of a number of accomplishments during 2019 including the reveal of the project’s general plan, launch of “Six Flags Qiddiya” design, and the initiation of the first construction phase.

The 21,000 square meters-new offices complex will hire approximately 150 employees working on the completion of the first phase of Qiddiya, scheduled for 2023.

The new offices complex, near the visitors’ center at Qiddiya, was developed by Dubox, an Amana company subsidiary. It will be the first batch of offices to be built on the Qiddiya site, which is expected to become the capital of entertainment, sports, and arts in Saudi Arabia.

The complex will include a backyard with outdoor seating, shaded parking, and a range of service facilities.

The offices’ interior design embodies a wonderful masterpiece designed by Saudi people and inspired by the cultural and creative spirit that characterizes the company’s main offices in Riyadh.

Saudi artists Sarah al-Juhani and Nou Ghamshi were chosen to supervise the design in a contemporary style, and the office was officially inaugurated on Dec. 11, where 12 Qiddiya employees were honored for their efforts in establishing the complex.

Chief development officer of the entertainment, sports and cultural destination of the Qiddiya Investment, Kareem Shamma, noted that these offices are important because they reflect the cultural and creative spirit of Qiddiya.

He indicated that they also represent a distinct work environment in which all the elements are available to enable the employees to accomplish their tasks in preparation for the launch of the first phase of the project.

“We are proud of our leadership in providing an ideal working environment and opening the new office ahead of time.”

Employees and staff members will gradually move from the company’s headquarters in Riyadh to the new complex at the project site to ensure a smooth transition.

The first batch of offices is located on the lower side of Qiddiya, and a second complex will be established on the upper side and is scheduled to be inaugurated in August 2020.

The Saudi government condemned on Tuesday Israel’s decision to West Bank lands as "state lands."

Reiterating its absolute rejection of these illegal measures, the Cabinet warned that they undermine peace efforts and violate the Palestinian people's inherent right to establish an independent, sovereign state within the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.

Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud chaired the Cabinet session that was held in Riyadh.

The Cabinet congratulated citizens and Muslims on the advent of the holy month of Ramadan, expressing gratitude for the Kingdom's honor in caring for the two holy mosques and their visitors.

The Cabinet highlighted the success of the Hajj and Umrah seasons, noting that the Kingdom welcomed 19.5 million international pilgrims and Umrah performers in 2025, setting new records that reflect rapid progress toward the goals of Vision 2030 and the Pilgrim Experience Program.

The Cabinet described the Kingdom's Founding Day celebration on February 22 as an expression of pride in the Saudi state's nearly three-century history, underscoring the foundations of justice, unity, and development established by leaders and citizens throughout history to ensure the nation remains a global leader in all fields.

The Cabinet was briefed on recent talks between Saudi Arabia and various nations, which focused on strengthening bilateral and multilateral cooperation and boosting coordination to foster regional and international security, stability, and prosperity.

The session further reviewed the Kingdom's economic, cultural, and social activities, stressing the state's commitment to social solidarity and giving. This includes continued support for the sixth National Campaign for Charitable Work, set to begin on Friday.

The Cabinet commended the success of the third World Defense Show held in Riyadh under the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques' patronage, during which strategic partnerships, agreements, and memoranda of understanding were signed to localize military technologies and strengthen local supply chains in alignment with Vision 2030 objectives.
