UiPath, a global leader in agentic automation, has officially inaugurated its new office at King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD) in Riyadh, marking a major milestone in the company’s expanding investment and presence in the Kingdom.
The inauguration ceremony was attended by Daniel Dines, founder and CEO of UiPath; Mark Gibbs, president – International at UiPath; and His Excellency Mohammed Alariefy, Assistant Deputy Minister for Digital Entrepreneurship at the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT). They were joined by representatives of key local customers, including the Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) and Shared Services Program (SSP), highlighting the growing role of automation and AI in Saudi Arabia’s digital transformation under Vision 2030.
UiPath solutions are already being deployed across leading Saudi organisations such as Aramco, the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA), and the Saudi Ministry of Tourism, delivering measurable outcomes and operational efficiencies across government entities and enterprises. The new Riyadh office will serve as a central hub for UiPath’s regional ecosystem of customers and partners, reinforcing the company’s commitment to enabling Saudi organisations to scale Agentic AI adoption.
“Saudi Arabia is moving boldly to shape the future of innovation, and UiPath is proud to be part of this journey by providing cutting edge Agentic AI platform,” said Daniel Dines, founder and CEO, UiPath. “The inauguration of our Riyadh office reflects our long-term commitment to the Kingdom’s Vision 2030, while our collaboration with the Saudi Digital Academy demonstrates our belief in the power of skills and education. By combining global expertise with local talent, UiPath is helping organisations across Saudi Arabia unlock new opportunities for growth, efficiency, and human achievement.”
In parallel with the office launch, UiPath and the Saudi Digital Academy announced the Second Edition of the Saudi Digital Academy Bootcamp, following the successful completion of the inaugural Saudi School of Automation program in 2024. Running from August 31 to November 20, 2025, the initiative will train and certify 25 young professionals, equipping them with essential automation and AI skills to support the Kingdom’s growing digital economy.
“Automation and AI are at the heart of how Saudi organisations are transforming, and UiPath is honored to support this ambition,” said Sara Al-Alsheikh, regional vice president and managing director for Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Bahrain at UiPath. “With our solutions already transforming operations across major Saudi institutions and our second bootcamp cohort ready to graduate, we’re seeing the tangible impact of our commitment to the Kingdom’s digital future. This office serves as a place where customers, partners, and innovators can come together to accelerate outcomes while creating a pipeline of Saudi professionals who will lead the Kingdom’s digital economy for decades to come.”
The new Riyadh office represents UiPath’s deepening engagement with Saudi Arabia’s digital transformation agenda, enabling closer collaboration with government bodies, enterprises, and academia to foster innovation, upskill local talent, and drive sustainable growth through automation and AI.
