Honeywell and Internet of Things Technologies Company (IoT-squared), a joint venture between Saudi Arabia?s Public Investment Fund (PIF) and stc Group (stc), have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that aims to advance the fields of sustainable cities, logistics platforms and technologies that drive digitalisation in Saudi Arabia

Signed at the Global AI Summit in Riyadh, the strategic MoU between Honeywell and IoT-squared supports the objectives outlined as part of Saudi Vision 2030 related to smart city development and advancing technology adoption in society.

The MoU paves the way for Honeywell to help support the advancement of IoT projects in the Kingdom by exploring opportunities to utilise its innovative Honeywell City Suite (HCS) Platform.

Honeywell and IoT-squared will also explore opportunities to utilise the Honeywell Moviliser Platform, a cloud software for field operations to drive enterprise profitability in the logistics vertical and related services. 

?Honeywell has been delivering cutting edge solutions to Saudi Arabia for more than 70 years, and we are actively contributing to the government?s vision to advance technology adoption and use digitalisation to advance sustainability efforts in cities.
