    For his part, Zain KSA CEO Eng. Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al-Deghaither, said "Zain KSA is proud to be at the lead of sponsors for this national campaign which would endorse the position of Saudi Arabia and its capital, Riyadh, across international forums under the venerated guidance and patronage of The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and His Highness the Crown Prince, as well as the efforts of the Ministry of Sports, represented by Minister of Sports HRH Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki Al-Faisal. "Certainly, the Kingdom's official candidacy to host this huge event, which is the second largest sporting event after the Olympic Games and is anticipated by over 5 billion viewers around the world, befits the Kingdom's position and its emergent role in all aspects, driven by the insightful Saudi Vision 2030 and its core focus on transforming Saudi Arabia into a hub for international events, along with fostering a vibrant young community.”

    Al-Deghaither added, that it is natural for the Kingdom to be on the global events map, adding that Zain KSA is proud to support and accompany the national efforts towards the Kingdom’s progress by sponsoring such events. “It is our national duty and we are committed to do everything we can to support our country and enhance the life quality of its people and its residents. At the same time, we are committed to capitalizing on our capabilities in the ICT sector to sustain the Kingdom’s leading global ICT position; we have been the world’s first telecom operator to provide the 5G carrier aggregation feature, the fourth largest operator of the 5G network globally, and we are still ranked first in the Middle East, Europe and Africa in terms of the largest 5G roll-out.”
