Navigating tomorrow: the CEO’s strategic vision for center3
At the helm of center3, Mr. AlHajeri’s stra-
tegic vision serves as a blueprint for the
company’s future, focusing on market op-
portunities, organizational growth, global
leadership, and the establishment of a com-
prehensive Digital Hub.
First, the future strategy of center3 in-
volves geographical expansion. Building
on its success in Saudi Arabia, the compa-
ny plans to extend its reach to new markets
in the Middle East and beyond. The recently
announced acquisition of CMC Networks
is a landmark move, opening doors to the
African continent and synergizing with
center3’s investment in the 2Africa cable
system. This expansion diversifies center3’s
geographical footprint and enhances its
global connectivity capabilities. Addition-
ally, explorations into other potential mar-
kets for data centers and connectivity are
underway, underscoring a strategic and cal-
culated approach to global expansion.
Second, in Saudi Arabia, center3 is rein-
forcing its commitment to growth by devel-
oping new data centers. These facilities are
tailored to offer scalability and state-of-
the-art services to both existing and new
customers, thereby strengthening center3’s
dedication to supporting the Kingdom’s dig-
ital transformation initiatives, including the
expanding sector of digital government. This
expansion is crucial in upholding center3’s
position as a leading player in the region’s
center3.com
digital economy. Third, the vision for cen-
ter3’s Digital Hub is an ever-evolving one.
The continued on-boarding of new hyper-
scalers, content providers, and carriers is
central to this vision. By continuously en-
riching its Digital Hub, center3 aims to
create a dynamic, resource-rich, and inter-
connected digital ecosystem. This strategy
focuses on expanding services and enhanc-
ing the quality and reach of digital connec-
tivity offered to clients.
Finally, a critical aspect of center3’s fu-
ture strategy involves bolstering its subsea
cables network. New routes are in devel-
opment to ensure seamless access to the
Digital Hub from various regions, includ-
ing East Africa. These new routes are antici-
pated to play a vital role in reducing latency,
improving data transfer speeds, and offering
more direct connectivity options. This de-
velopment is crucial in solidifying center3’s
and Saudi Arabia’s role as a central node in
the global digital infrastructure network.
center3’s strategy is a blend of ambitious
geographic expansion and meticulous en-
hancement of its capabilities. The compa-
ny is poised not only to strengthen its posi-
tion in the Middle East but also to establish
a significant presence in new international
markets, thereby becoming a global leader
of digital connectivity and innovation.

 Testimonials
Not only did the event provide an effective platform for
connecting with our network and colocation partners in the
region, but I also thoroughly enjoyed speaking at the panels. The
topics were engaging, and it was fascinating to hear from fellow
speakers, gaining insights from their diverse perspectives.
Sabine Sitterli, Vice President, Network Infrastructure, AKAMAI

Not only does this event get bigger and bigger, but the
quality in the logistics, the meetings, and attendees is
unmatched. It’s the premier event of the region.
Cengiz Oztelcan, CEO, GULF BRIDGE INTERNATIONAL​

For me it is the ITW of the Middle East.

Marco Brandstaetter, Regional Director Middle East and India, DE-CIX​

Capacity events have always been productive and meaningful for our business

I appreciate the opportunity to contribute to the event and found it to be both

I believe it offered significant value to all participants.
