Saudi Arabia software market grows with cloud and AI

Access Partnership has published a report, produced with AWS, on software market growth in Saudi Arabia and what it means for independent software vendors entering the Kingdom.

• The report says Saudi Arabia’s software market was valued at USD 4.3 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 9.3 billion by 2030, driven by Vision 2030, digital infrastructure investment, and public-sector IT spending.
• It highlights AWS’s Saudi Arabia Cloud Infrastructure Region planned for December 2026, an AWS-HUMAIN collaboration expected to provide up to 50 MW of AI Zone capacity by 2028, and policy factors including the Cloud First Policy, Personal Data Protection Law, Cloud Computing Services Provisioning Regulations, NCA controls, and RHQ rules.
