Khazna Data Centres is strengthening its position in Saudi Arabia with the appointment of Mohammed Bin Hassan as the new Country Head. This move is part of Khazna’s broader Saudi expansion strategy, which supports Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 digital transformation goals. The company has already acquired a significant land parcel in Dammam, where it plans to build a state-of-the-art, AI-ready hyperscale data centre.
Khazna’s Growing Role in Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030
As part of its Khazna Saudi expansion, the company is committed to advancing the Kingdom’s digital infrastructure, with a focus on supporting AI-driven economies. Bin Hassan, who brings over 20 years of experience in national digital strategy, is set to lead Khazna’s operations in Saudi Arabia. Under his leadership, the company will develop its Dammam facility, providing the infrastructure needed for high-density AI workloads, including GPU clusters.
CEO Hassan Alnaqbi expressed confidence in Bin Hassan’s leadership. “With Mohammed leading our operations in Saudi Arabia, we have the right expertise to help the country achieve its national AI goals,” he said. The Dammam data centre will be a key part of Khazna’s efforts to provide cutting-edge infrastructure for Saudi Arabia’s digital future.
Expanding AI Infrastructure with Hyperscale Data Centres
The Dammam project will be Khazna’s first hyperscale facility in Saudi Arabia and is designed to meet the growing demand for AI infrastructure. The facility will feature modular architecture for easy scalability, support high-density workloads, and adhere to LEED Gold sustainability standards. This Khazna Saudi expansion is expected to play a critical role in advancing the country’s digital economy.
Bin Hassan emphasized that the project aligns with Saudi Arabia’s long-term priorities. “Khazna is a global expert in hyperscale infrastructure, and we are committed to accelerating innovation and resilience in Saudi Arabia,” he said.
Khazna’s Future in Saudi Arabia and Beyond
As part of its Saudi expansion, Khazna is also working to deepen its partnerships with local government agencies and private-sector clients. The company’s investments in AI-ready infrastructure will empower Saudi Arabia to lead in data and AI capabilities, furthering its Vision 2030 digital transformation objectives.
