stc Group, an engine of digital transformation, is participating in Capacity Middle East 2024, the region’s leading meeting for the digital infrastructure industry, as its “digital enabler.” The event is being held at the Grand Hyatt Dubai Conference and Exhibition Center from Feb. 6-8.

The event will connect 2,600+ key ICT players from the Middle East and beyond, representing carrier, cloud, peering, hyperscale, content, finance, edge, software, equipment, data center, and satellite industries.

stc Group is participating under the theme “The Root of Connectivity,” which signifies Saudi Arabia’s strategic position as a connectivity hub between the east and west.

The platform, participating under the theme “The Regional Digital Hub,” owns digital infrastructure assets, including data centers and submarine cables, with the aim of building an integrated ecosystem that attracts hyper-scale data providers and increases their capacity through the latest communication and hosting technologies.
