Siemens Mobility boosts regional presence with new Saudi office

Siemens Mobility has announced the opening of its new office in Riyadh, thus reinforcing its long-term commitment to shaping the future of smart and sustainable mobility in Saudi Arabia and the wider region. Its key projects in Saudi Arabia include the East-West Rail Line, Haramain High-Speed Railway, Al Mashaaer Al Mugaddassah Metro Line, and Riyadh Metro.
 
The move supports Saudi Arabia’s objective of building a more resilient and climate-friendly transportation system in line with its ambitious Vision 2030 and Saudi Green Initiative (SGI).
 
Siemens Mobility inaugurated its new office in the presence of its leadership, high-level Saudi government officials, and key executives from its customers and partners. 
 
A Delegation from the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany in Riyadh was there at the opening led by ambassador Michael Kindsgrab along with Julia Nordmann, Head of Economic Affairs, and Ali Dulaim, the CEO of EA Juffali & Brothers Co.
 
The opening, part of the company’s strategic expansion in the region, follows last year’s appointment of Frank Hagemeier as the CEO of Siemens Mobility for Saudi Arabia. 
 
Strengthening its presence in the kingdom will enable Siemens Mobility to create significant in-country value, new employment opportunities, and leverage its extensive expertise to develop homegrown talent.
 
"At Siemens Mobility, we are building on years of transformative contributions globally and since our first contract in Saudi Arabia in 2005 till today in Saudi Arabia’s transportation infrastructure to make mobility in Saudi Arabia faster, safer, and more efficient," remarked its CEO Hagemeier.
 
"The opening of our new office in Riyadh will bring us closer to our customers and strategic partners in Saudi Arabia while making us ideally positioned to expand our operations in Saudi Arabia and support key mega projects," he stated. 
 
"It will also enable us to fast-track our growth and reaffirm our position as a crucial player on the region’s mobility landscape," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
