Activities
STC continuously deploys and maintain 5G towers, fiber-optic networks, and international submarine cables—supporting 5G coverage expansion (STC reported ~70% population 5G coverage in 2024) and over 600k km of fiber across Saudi Arabia; these assets drive high-speed domestic access and international transit (STC’s 2024 capex ~SAR 9.2bn for network investments).
