Spanning over 1.2 million square meters, Masar Destination is the largest urban project in Makkah. Its portfolio, which spans hotels, residential and hotel apartments, and integrated commercial and medical facilities, aligns with the Kingdom’s vision for advanced urban environments that serve both visitors and residents.

Forrester: Three Years Into GenAI, Enterprises Are Still Chasing Its True Transformative Value2.4.2026 17:00:00 EEST | Press release
