RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s Minister of Communications and Information Technology Abdullah bin Amer Al-Swaha on Sunday opened a conference about the Internet of Things (IoT), the Saudi Press Agency reported.
The event was attended by Anas Al-Faris, who is president of King Abdul Aziz City for Science and Technology (KACST), and other officials.
It runs alongside a conference on cybersecurity and is organized by KACST under the ministry’s supervision. It runs until March 10 at the Riyadh International Convention and Exhibition Center.
