Abdullah Khorami, Chief Business Officer (CBO) of Salam, delivered a keynote speech at Huawei Connect 2025 in Shanghai, during the Government Public Services Digitalization session.

His remarks highlighted Salam’s pivotal role in advancing Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 through its strong backbone infrastructure, expansive fiber network, nationwide 5G coverage, and its portfolio of eight key solutions—Connectivity, Cybersecurity, Hosting, Professional Services, Managed Services, Enterprise Applications, AI, and 5G Solutions.

A centerpiece of the speech was the successful joint validation of Salam and Huawei’s SD-WAN solution with a leading Saudi government entity, showcasing the delivery of secure, resilient, and agile connectivity that enables smarter public services. Khorami also emphasized the partnership’s achievement in building one of the Kingdom’s most advanced MPLS networks, serving enterprise clients with robust backbone capabilities, seamless traffic management, and optimized performance.

In his remarks, Khorami stated:

“I extend my gratitude to the Salam team, whose expertise made these milestones possible, and to our customers and partners for their trust. From fixed to mobile infrastructure, we are turning ideas into real impact. A notable example is the SD-WAN deployment for a major Saudi government customer during the 2025 Hajj season, where sites were seamlessly connected and tested, now progressing toward full commercial success.”

He concluded:

“Most importantly, I dedicate this recognition to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It demonstrates what can be achieved through vision, innovation, and determination. Salam will continue to invest, innovate, and play a central role in shaping the future of ICT.”

The address reaffirmed Salam’s leadership in driving digital transformation in Saudi Arabia and underscored the power of strategic partnerships—like Salam’s collaboration with Huawei—in shaping the future of government and enterprise digital services.
