Egis announced in a statement that it was appointed by Diriyah Gate Development Authority (DGDA) to provide Project Management Consultancy services to a part of DGDA’s retail and heritage masterplan. Egis’ services will cover all phases of the South and the Garden Districts, including early development, design, procurement, construction, and more.
Under the patronage of His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, DGDA was established with a mandate to transform the historic district of Ad Diriyah into an iconic and world class destination within Riyadh, reflecting and celebrating the rich history of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Diriyah Gate will be a mixed-use project, with history and heritage assets at its core, enriched by entertainment, shopping, and residential elements.
The Diriyah Gardens and Diriyah South Districts developments form part of the wider Diriyah Gate masterplan and will entail hotels, museums, conference centres and more.
Egis is proud to help shape the Saudi Vision 2030 which includes developing and diversifying the public service sectors from infrastructure, to recreation to tourism.
“We are currently involved in many projects serving Saudi’s 2030 Vision and this iconic project is no different. Diriyah will serve as the Kingdom’s historic and cultural destination showcasing the country’s 300+ years of history which will no doubt enrich the tourism industry as well as create a destination which all Saudis will pride themselves with. We look forward to watching these iconic projects come to life over the next few years and are extremely proud to play our part in this great vision,” says Alaa Abusiam, CEO of Egis in the Middle East.
