Naver has highlighted its latest smart city innovations at Cityscape Global 2025 in Riyadh, demonstrating digital twin, artificial intelligence, and cloud solutions tailored to Saudi Arabia’s fast-growing urban development sector. The Korean technology company is positioning itself as a key partner in projects aligned with the Saudi Vision 2030 transformation agenda.
Naver showcased newly developed digital twin platforms covering major Saudi cities including Mecca, Medina, and Jeddah. The models span approximately 6,800 square kilometers — more than 920,000 buildings — and provide high-precision 3D mapping with capabilities such as terrain analysis, skyline and sunlight simulation, real-time building design verification, and advanced urban planning analytics.
The company said these solutions are designed to support city planners, infrastructure developers, and investment authorities as large-scale development accelerates across the Kingdom. The digital twin initiative follows Naver’s expanded engagement in Saudi Arabia’s smart infrastructure ecosystem in recent years.
Kim Yu-won, head of Naver Cloud, said the exhibition allowed the company to demonstrate both its digital twin and AI competencies directly to key Saudi stakeholders. He added that Naver will continue enhancing its platforms and explore further collaboration opportunities in the Kingdom.
