GCEO’s message

2025 was another landmark year for stc – a year of record growth, transformative impact and unwavering commitment to our purpose.

We delivered solid performance across our core business areas, underpinned by disciplined execution and the dedication of our people. Together, we have grown into the market leading digital enabler and positioned stc as the most valuable and strongest telecommunications brand in the MENA region.

While our financial achievements are significant, our success is equally defined by how effectively we embed strong governance, social advancement and environmental stewardship, into our operations to drive innovation and long-term sustainable growth.

Strong governance is the force that shapes our future. By embracing transparency, forward-looking risk management, and principled leadership, we create an environment where integrity is not just protected — it becomes a catalyst for innovation, resilience, and long-term value. This is how we earn trust today and build a legacy that endures.

As digital transformation accelerates across the Kingdom and the region, stc continued to lead with purpose by providing reliable connectivity and enabling economic diversification through advanced infrastructure and digital services. While innovation remains central to our strategy, we are actively integrating AI across our operations with strong focus on responsible and secure infrastructure aligned with national and international ethical guidelines, including the development of AI-powered solutions for high-impact sectors such as smart cities and health fields.

I extend my thanks to our employees for their dedication, our board for their vision, our strategic partners for their support, and our customers, investors and stakeholders for their trust. Together, we are moving forward towards a connected, resilient, and sustainable future for all.
