Kent, Nesma & Partners sources added that this IJV will space out a new local Saudi company, Nesma Kent, with the goal of building an autonomous engineering centre of excellence in the Kingdom within five years. Committed to transferring skills and knowledge to the local Saudi workforce, the new company will establish a tailored training program for Saudi Nationals as well as run out of Kingdom rotations for Saudi engineers to Kent’s global engineering centres to maximize and accelerate the knowledge transfer process.
