The report also revealed that $649 billion was spent on supporting environmental, social, and corporate governance practices in 2021, a significant increase from 2019. Telecommunications and technology companies like STC, Mobily, and Zain have issued sustainability reports detailing their progress. These companies rank highly on the MSCI ESG Index, reflecting their commitment to sustainability. Saudi Arabia’s ongoing investments in digital infrastructure position it as a leader in digital sustainability. The Communications, Space, and Technology Commission aims to be one of the most advanced 5G regulatory bodies globally.
The Kingdom has made significant progress in adopting sustainability concepts and leading international action through the Saudi Green and Middle East Green initiatives. These initiatives aim to preserve the environment and transition to renewable energy.
