DUBAI: Prince Dr. Bandar bin Abdullah bin Mishari, assistant minister of interior for technology affairs, expressed his pride in the ministry’s successes through its presence at Dubai GITEX Technology Week for the seventh year in a row.  Prince Bandar made the remarks as he visited the ministry’s pavilion. The ministry is participating in this year’s event under the slogan “Technical Solutions for a Safe Homeland.” The topics covered are: Digital enablers and their role in governance to serve customers, ministry services for pilgrims, dealing with events, crises and work procedures, the future of services and security operations, and the role of modern technology in combating crime and making cities safer. They also include the optimal use of technology through the Absher app, which allows people in the Kingdom to use a variety of government services, to help ministry staff manage resources and digitally implement internal procedures and support services for employees and the ministry’s community. The ministry’s role in preserving the environment and its initiatives in the field of innovation are also being highlighted at the pavilion, with the topics and issues presented in interactive ways.  The aim is to highlight the ministry’s achievements in light of the Saudi Vision 2030. Prince Bandar toured the pavilion and was briefed on the electronic services and apps provided by the bodies and sectors participating in the pavilion, which is next to the pavilion of the Saudi Authority for Data and Artificial Intelligence and the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah. It comes in light of enhancing the presence of government agencies in the coming years, showing them all as an interconnected digital system in the exhibition. This helps to highlight the level of digital maturity and harmony between all Saudi government agencies to visitors.
