Saudi Arabia Edtech Hardware Market Trends:

Government Investment and Policy Support

Saudi Arabia has taken impressive leaps in developing its education infrastructure with great encouragement from the government. The push for instilling technology in the learning environment is very strong. As part of the Vision 2030 project, digital transformation is focused on across the country, including in education. With the "Digital Transformation in Education" initiative, the government has been heavily investing in equipping schools with the appropriate technological resources, such as laptops, tablets, and interactive smartboards. Financing programs have been distributed between public and private schools to ensure that devices are available even in remote areas of the country. The government is also investing in the creation of e-learning platforms and virtual classrooms, further fuelling demand for education hardware. On October 21, 2024, Alef Education, a UAE-based leader in educational technology, expanded into the Saudi Arabian market by signing a contract with Knowledge Towers School in Riyadh. The partnership aims to implement AI-powered solutions for personalized student learning, with Alef's platform already serving over 1.1 million students across 7,000 schools globally. At the Learn KSA conference, Alef highlighted that students using its AI-enhanced platforms had shown a 25% improvement in academic performance over just one semester. Moreover, Saudi Arabia's commitment to improving digital literacy and fostering a knowledge-based economy has led to consistent investment in educational technology at all levels, from K-12 to universities. With a strong regulatory framework and policy support, educational hardware has become an essential component of the educational landscape in Saudi Arabia, contributing significantly to the Saudi Arabia edtech hardware market growth.

Vendor Innovation and Localization for Regional Needs

Hardware vendors in Saudi Arabia are keen to cater to the specific needs of the local education sector, providing solutions that are not only high-tech but also adaptable to the unique learning environment in the country. Vendors are increasingly offering localized products designed for the Saudi Arabian market, ensuring compatibility with Arabic language interfaces, regional educational curricula, and cultural preferences. Devices designed for the harsh desert climate are becoming more prevalent, with an emphasis on durability and longer battery life. Vendors are also focusing on providing additional services, such as training for educators on how to effectively use digital tools and offering software bundles that complement the hardware. With Saudi Arabia’s commitment to becoming a global hub for education and innovation, local partnerships between hardware suppliers and educational institutions are strengthening. On May 7, 2025, Egypt-based edtech platform Career 180 secured a six-figure investment from US-based Den VC to expand its operations into Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Malta. The funding will enable Career 180 to scale its Learning Management System (LMS), localize course content into Arabic, and enhance its focus on youth employment, aiming to qualify over 1 million individuals and hire 50,000 new beneficiaries. This expansion is supported by a partnership with Value Makers Studio (VMS), which will assist with market entry and adaptation to local needs in Saudi Arabia. These collaborations ensure that products meet both the functional requirements of the educational system and local preferences. Additionally, many vendors are focusing on offering post-purchase support, including on-site servicing and maintenance, which further increases the appeal of their products in the Saudi market. The customization of hardware to fit regional needs has become a critical factor in driving market growth.
