SPARK offers a truly unique value proposition for investors and tenants, including but not limited to the following benefits:

The concept is an essential factor for investors seeking to base themselves at the heart of the regional energy sector and benefit from A-Z support services. 

SPARK’s offerings are a cut above, with three considerations that truly set us apart.

Firstly, as a fully integrated city with a world-class masterplan and its own utilities and logistics subsidiaries, and a vibrant community with commercial, residential, and educational areas, everything you need is in SPARK. 

Secondly, we offer A-Z full-service offerings, including SPARK’s own utilities and logistics subsidiaries, that mean unrivaled ease of operations for our tenants.

Lastly, SPARK is accelerating the future, and enabling its tenants to do the same. The SPARK Digital Hub is a collaborative platform supporting tenants in driving digital innovation through services such as business support, facilitating networking, and enabling talent development.

SPARK is a national Saudi megaproject proudly driving socio-economic impact locally and globally.

As a key Vision 2030 initiative bringing socio-economic value to the Kingdom, SPARK aims to:

• Add $150 billion to the Saudi GDP in total / $6 billion a year by 2030.
• Create thousands of direct and indirect jobs. 
• Driving the implementation of the Kingdom’s Fourth Industrial Revolution aimed at developing and executing emerging technologies. 

We are committed to the development of Saudi talent, especially the youth. This is exemplified by our partnerships with key academic institutions to help train young Saudi students.

Through the localization of the technological and human capabilities required to create socio-economic impact, SPARK is proudly supporting the Kingdom’s energy transition.

Additionally, SPARK supports several national programs intended to increase productivity in the labor market and create more employment opportunities. SPARK is proud to support the Tamheer program; an on-the-job training program for Saudi graduates, and the Professional Career Certificates Support Program, which aims to empower job-seekers, allowing them to obtain professional certificates required by the Saudi labor market.

SPARK targets five energy-related sectors’ value chains:

• Upstream
• Downstream
• Power
• Non-metallic 
• Green Sectors

SPARK is catalyzing the Kingdom’s role in the global energy transition.

We are aligned with Aramco and the Kingdom’s net neutrality pledges.

We adopt sustainable technology and solutions to minimize not only our emissions but also those of our tenants. 

SPARK enables supply chain localization, which will greatly reduce the environmental cost of manufacturing and distributing energy-related products in the Kingdom and the region.
