The company will showcase AI, connected stadiums, smart cities, cybersecurity, cloud and digital infrastructure solutions supporting Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 ambitions.
Mannai Information Technology Saudi Arabia (MIT KSA), part of Mannai Corporation QPSC, announced its participation in LEAP 2026, taking place from August 31 to September 3 at the Riyadh Exhibition and Conference Center – Malham. The company’s presence at the event reflects its growing focus on how artificial intelligence, connected stadiums, smart cities, cybersecurity, cloud transformation, intelligent digital infrastructure, and digital workplace innovation are transforming sports, cities, and enterprises across Saudi Arabia.
Mannai Information Technology’s participation follows the recent opening of its regional headquarters in Riyadh, deepening the company’s local delivery capabilities and customer relationships in the Kingdom. It also comes as the Kingdom’s sports industry scales rapidly under Vision 2030, from the growth of the Saudi Pro League to the country’s preparations to host the FIFA World Cup 2034. Alongside, national efforts like SDAIA’s AI strategy and the National Gaming and Esports Strategy are creating fresh demand for the technology that powers connected stadiums, smart venues and the wider digital economy around them.
“Sports, cities and enterprises across Saudi Arabia are converging as the Kingdom advances towards the next phase of growth and economic diversification. LEAP 2026 gives us a platform to bring its regional expertise to bear on that opportunity,” said Lakshimi Narayanan, General Manager, Mannai Information Technology Saudi Arabia.
“AI, connectivity and cloud form the backbone for the next phase. Through our participation, we look forward to showcasing how AI, data and infrastructure work together to support the technological ambitions of the Kingdom. Our priority is outcomes, the partnerships that make those outcomes possible, and our role as a trusted technology partner in Saudi Arabia’s digital future.”
At the booth, a series of interactive demonstrations will focus on practical, real-world outcomes rather than individual technologies, showing how organisations can use these capabilities to improve operational efficiency, strengthen security, enhance user experiences and unlock new opportunities for innovation. Conversations will be led by MIT KSA’s own expertise and understanding of regional market needs, drawing on a broad ecosystem of global technology partners.
New partnerships and joint initiatives with leading Saudi and regional organisations, alongside continued engagement with global technology leaders, will be a key focus for the company at LEAP 2026. These collaborations underscore MIT KSA’s long-term commitment to Saudi Arabia and its ambition to contribute meaningfully to the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 objectives through knowledge-sharing, innovation, and impactful technology partnerships.
Mannai Information Technology Saudi Arabia will be present at Hall 4, Stand H.20, within the SportsTech Hall, where visitors can engage with the team’s experts and experience these solutions firsthand.
