Kidana Development and Development Company participated as a strategic partner in the 4th edition of the Hajj Conference and Exhibition 2025, which commenced today, Monday, at the “Jeddah Super Dome” under the theme “The Road to Rituals.” This year’s conference focuses on key themes, including sustainability, innovative environmental technologies supporting the Hajj journey, applications of artificial intelligence to enhance crowd and service management, as well as digital solutions aimed at facilitating operations and improving efficiency.
Showcasing Developmental Milestones
During the conference, Kidana set up a distinctive 200-square-meter pavilion showcasing the most significant developmental achievements of the holy sites. It highlighted Saudi Arabia’s longstanding commitment and care for the holy sites, starting from the era of the Kingdom’s founder, King Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud – may he rest in peace – to the reign of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud – may God preserve him. These efforts reflect the Kingdom’s ongoing dedication to accommodating the growing number of pilgrims each year, fulfilling the divine trust and honoring the sacred responsibility bestowed upon the Kingdom, its leaders, and its people.
Operational Excellence in the Holy Sites
Kidana’s pavilion featured a comprehensive presentation of its projects as the primary developer of the holy sites for 1446 AH. This included accomplishments from its specialized centers, such as Malik, Tasleem, and the Monitoring and Control Centers. These projects aim to enhance performance efficiency and achieve the highest standards of operational excellence by unifying the efforts of all sectors working toward the development of the holy sites. Additionally, the projects focus on improving services provided to pilgrims, promoting sustainability in the development and utilization of the holy sites year-round, and building a robust database for analysis to proactively address and resolve issues, thereby increasing infrastructure reliability and the quality of services provided.
Strategic Agreements for Development and Sustainability
As part of its participation in the Hajj Expo 2025, Kidana aims to sign several strategic agreements with relevant entities and grant-making institutions. These agreements are intended to enhance community contributions and improve the environment within the holy sites. They encompass providing integrated services during and beyond the Hajj season, increasing asset management efficiency, and activating the holy sites throughout the year to achieve sustainable development goals and operational excellence.
A Commitment to Vision 2030
Kidana’s participation in the conference underscores its belief in its pioneering role in the development of the holy sites and its alignment with Saudi Vision 2030. This reflects its commitment to serving the guests of Allah and enhancing their experience through innovative and sustainable projects.
