“Google Cloud is launching a “Center of Excellence” in Saudi Arabia to support the realization of the National Vision 2030 and its “Human Capability Development” program. The launch also comes at a time when businesses of all sizes in the Kingdom are realizing that the need to go digital is inevitable and are embracing digital transformation as a top priority, and thus require trained professionals who are well versed in the Cloud industry to lead the transformation. We are opening up the center virtually to ensure that everyone in all corners of the Kingdom has accessibility to the courses and can grow and develop their digital skills with Google Cloud.”
Additionally, the “Google for Startups Cloud Academy” was also announced at the event which is a 10-week program designed for startups across Saudi Arabia that are leveraging technology to build scalable, resilient and innovative solutions to solve business challenges. All accepted startups will receive mentorship and support from teams at Google and its mentor network in application modernization, artificial intelligence (AI), Data & Analytics, machine learning (ML) and marketing.
