The partnership aims to establish neutral digital infrastructure across all SEVEN entertainment destinations in Saudi Arabia.
One of many deals announced during the recent LEAP conference, a global platform for technology and innovation, the agreement focuses on developing the internal and external infrastructure for SEVEN's 21 entertainment destinations across Saudi Arabia.
This includes the design, management, operation and maintenance of a neutral infrastructure compatible with all telecom operators. The infrastructure will feature indoor coverage systems (IBS), multi-band antenna distribution systems, and neutral communication towers at SEVEN destinations.
