Diriyah Company on Sunday signed a strategic memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Saudi Research and Media Group (SRMG) to expand collaboration in the media sector and deliver innovative projects and initiatives that further solidify the company’s standing as a global destination of historical and cultural significance.
The MoU also aims to amplify cultural and national narratives, reaching audiences both within the Kingdom and across international markets, Diriyah said in a statement.
The agreement was signed by Jerry Inzerillo, Group CEO of Diriyah Company, and Jomana Alrashid, CEO of SRMG.
It sets the stage for closer cooperation in media, marketing, and cultural content, with a dedicated joint team to be established to develop initiatives that reflect the shared vision and ambitions of both organizations.
The collaboration between Diriyah Company and SRMG spans four key areas: corporate and media communications; events, exhibitions, conferences, and visits; data and expertise exchange and knowledge transfer; as well as joint training programs, activities, and initiatives.
It also outlines enhanced collaboration across SRMG media platforms, the organization of visits for international media delegations to experience Diriyah, and exploring opportunities to host exhibitions, events, and joint cultural and social activities.
“The signing of this MoU between Diriyah Company and SRMG aligns with our vision to be active enablers in these industries through the Media and Innovation District, currently under development within the Diriyah project, which will become a vibrant hub for media and technological creativity in the region,” Inzerillo said.
For her part, Alrashid said the MoU reinforces SRMG’s approach of building strategic alliances.
“We believe in our pivotal role in delivering content that reflects the identity and aspirations of Saudi Arabia,” she said. “Through this agreement, we will support Diriyah’s vision with our integrated media solutions, combining broad reach, digital capabilities, and advanced editorial insight, to deliver high-quality content that deeply and effectively engages both local and international audiences.”
The cooperation is part of a series of strategic agreements that Diriyah Company has signed with various government and private entities to support the company’s efforts in cultural and economic development and to strengthen its global presence in line with Saudi Vision 2030.
The collaboration also underscores Diriyah’s commitment to developing the “Media and Innovation District,” a 250,000-square-meter hub set to become a dynamic center for media talent and projects.
The district will include commercial and office spaces, residential units, and a luxury hotel, further reinforcing Diriyah’s position as a leading destination for culture, creativity, and media.
