Executives at Saudi Arabia’s giga-project, NEOM, have revealed updated timelines for the multi-billion-dollar development. Some milestones are near-term and well-defined, such as TROJENA, which is set to welcome guests in two years. Others, like THE LINE, are more open-ended.
Satellite images obtained by Business Insider show a lavish palace that's been constructed as part of Saudi Arabia's $2 trillion NEOM megacity project. The images, which feature in a new Business Insider documentary and were captured by satellite firm Maxar Technologies in January, show a large palace on the Red Sea coast in the northeast of Saudi Arabia.
An hour’s drive from NEOM’s headline-grabbing linear city project THE LINE, a development workforce of 6,000 is transforming a stretch of Red Sea coast into what Saudi Arabia envisions as the world’s most advanced and sustainable port – Port of NEOM, in the reimagined industrial city, OXAGON.
What is an artist’s role in building a city? The inaugural Artists in Residence programme at NEOM addresses this question, and there is hardly a better place to investigate the subject than a city that is in the process of being built. A $500 billion project, NEOM has made international headlines over the past few years for its mega-developments that include THE LINE, OXAGON and TROJENA.
The first FutureSpark Base Camp in Riyadh has been successfully completed by Outlier Ventures, the top deep tech Web3 accelerator in the world. With assistance from NEOM, the program was carried out in close collaboration with Saudi Arabia's National Technology Development Program (NTDP), offering participants vital resources and knowledgeable direction.
In an exclusive interview with pv magazine, ACWA Power CEO Marco Arcelli said the Saudi energy giant is currently exploring opportunities to build a hydrogen corridor between Europe and the Middle East and North Africa. He spoke about the company’s current 2 GW hydrogen project in NEOM and presented the company’s plans for renewable energy and desalination.
Saudi Arabia and snow sound like they don’t go together. The marvellous megaproject, TROJENA Ski Village, is set to shift your expectations. Located in NEOM, the area is an all-year-round mountainous destination. The developers have dropped a new video of the site, and here’s what to expect.
For those who thought Saudi Arabia’s mega project NEOM is far from fruition, one look at its worker community shows the reality of the place where thousands of workers have flocked to the Kingdom to be a piece of the puzzle in building the futuristic region – standing at the size of Belgium – ground up. A man-made community, designed for those shaping one of the world’s most ambitious plans, features thousands of mountain lodge-style cabins, penthouse flats, and residential lodgings. Interwoven with amenities – including schools, health centers, gyms, upscale restaurants, basketball courts, and swimming pools.
Texas-based neurotech startup Paradromics on Wednesday announced a strategic partnership with Saudi Arabia's NEOM and said it will establish a Brain-Computer Interface Center of Excellence in the region. NEOM is a developing area within northwest Saudi Arabia that's touted as "a hub for innovation," according to its website.
