Saudi Arabia has long been synonymous with opulent wealth and awe-inspiring real estate developments.

However, recently the kingdom aims to flip the property world on its head and look to embrace a new technology that’s poised to revolutionise the real estate industry.

An unusual mega-project will feature branded real estate projects, taking their towering skyscrapers and sprawling properties to a new height with a world-class urban experience.

Saudi Arabia real estate developer, Aqaratic, has signed this new deal with Egeez Inc at a sum of £791.2 million ($1 billion) that will bring a new level of immersive lifestyle experiences to visitors with an entertainment-themed property developments launch.

The deal will launch Egeez World Saudi Arabia in Riyadh and aims to redefine urban communities by leveraging intellectual property (IP)-themed branded real estate to the Kingdom.

This new deal will be a number of other initiatives that aim to align with Saudi Vision 2030 which “creates a thriving economy where everyone has the opportunity to succeed”.

It’s spearheaded by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) and looks to put Saudi Arabia on the global map when it comes to tourism, a diversified economy and enhancement of the quality of life for citizens through world-class urban experiences.

This new initiative is designed to captivate nostalgic fans while also elevating the Kingdom as a leader in mega-projects and entertainment.

Nathen Mazri, Egeez World founder, is known to be a trailblazer when it comes to the entertainment IP-licensing world.
