Recognition highlights HID\u2019s expertise in trusted digital identity technologies and its contribution to Saudi Arabia\u2019s Vision 2030<\/p>\n

Ain Alalam – Rashad Iskandrni
\nSeptember 15, 2026 \u2013 HID, a worldwide leader in trusted identity solutions, is proud to announce its recognition as the \u2018Saudi Arabia IoT Leader in Digital ID Verification\u2019 by Saudi Arabia\u2019s Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT), the Communications, Space and Technology Commission (CST), and the Digital Government Authority (DGA) during LEAP 2026, a renowned technology conference and exhibition held annually in Saudi Arabia.
\nThe recognition is part of the Kingdom\u2019s IoT Adoption Initiative. HID was recognized for its leadership in digital identity verification, its continued innovation in trusted identity technologies and its contribution to enabling secure digital experiences across sectors that are central to Saudi Arabia\u2019s Vision 2030 objectives.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\n\u201cDigital identity is becoming a critical enabler as Saudi organizations digitalize services, strengthen security and improve citizen and customer experiences,\u201d said Gustavo Gassmann, Vice President and Head of Emerging Markets at HID Global. \u201cOur portfolio is built to support that shift, helping secure access across both digital and physical environments.\u201d
\nThe recognition comes at a time of significant momentum for the Kingdom\u2019s digital economy. According to the Saudi authorities, the IoT Adoption initiative has been supported by more than 300 public and private-sector organizations, has helped drive the deployment of more than 40 million connected devices across the Kingdom and has contributed approximately SAR17 billion (US$4.5 billion) to Saudi Arabia\u2019s GDP. These achievements reflect the country\u2019s commitment to building a robust digital ecosystem supported by advanced infrastructure, innovation and strong public-private collaboration.
\nPresented during LEAP 2026, the recognition also underscores Saudi Arabia\u2019s growing position as a global hub for technology innovation. The fifth edition of the landmark event concluded with nearly US$15 billion in announced investments, agreements, and partnerships spanning artificial intelligence, cloud computing, data centres, technology manufacturing, and venture capital, further strengthening the Kingdom\u2019s status as a leading digital economy.
\nSaudi Arabia continues to be one of HID\u2019s strategic markets globally, with growing demand for secure, interoperable identity solutions across government services, digital platforms, financial services, transportation, healthcare, education and critical infrastructure. The company has established a strong regional presence, supporting customers and partners with local expertise while delivering technologies that align with the Kingdom\u2019s digital ambitions.<\/p>\n[\/mhc_text][\/mhc_column][\/mhc_row][\/mhc_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
