First laptop produced in Riyadh demonstrates progress since the Lenovo & ALAT strategic collaboration was announced – marking the next phase of local technology production, with mass production expected to begin in late 2026

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – 31 st August 2026 – Lenovo today unveiled its first laptop manufactured in Saudi Arabia, marking a major milestone in the company’s journey to establish a world-class manufacturing and innovation ecosystem in the Kingdom. As Lenovo continues to expand its presence across Saudi Arabia, the launch reinforces its commitment to developing local talent, advancing technology innovation, and strengthening the Kingdom’s position as a global manufacturing hub.

Unveiled at LEAP 2026 and produced in Riyadh, the device represents one of the first products to emerge from Lenovo’s manufacturing facility in the Kingdom. With mass production of limited products commencing in late 2026, the facility will contribute to the development of local industrial capabilities while supporting Lenovo’s regional and global operations.

Tareq Alangari, Senior Vice President and President, Lenovo Middle East, Türkiye and Africa, said: ” At LEAP last year Lenovo and ALAT announced an ambition to help establish Saudi Arabia as a global technology and manufacturing hub. Today, we are proud to unveil the first Lenovo laptop manufactured in the Kingdom. This announcement is proof of what can be achieved when long-term investment, local talent, and ambitious national goals come together. With this in mind Saudi Arabia will play an increasingly important role in Lenovo’s global manufacturing, innovation, and supply chain network.”

“Today’s milestone reflects what long-term partnership can deliver. Alongside Lenovo, ALAT is helping build advanced manufacturing capability in Saudi Arabia. This creates skilled jobs, develops Saudi talent, and strengthens the industrial foundation for Vision 2030. What matters most for us is that the capability we build together stays in the Kingdom for the years ahead.” Said, Dr. Muhammad Aldawood, Acting CEO, ALAT

Over the past year, Lenovo has significantly expanded its presence in Saudi Arabia through the establishment of its META Regional Headquarters in Riyadh .
