About Us
At GE, we base everything we do around four ways we can change the world.
Building
GE has the largest country operation in the Middle East in Saudi Arabia, employing over 1,600 professionals. Building on eight decades of partnership with Saudi Arabia, GE stands strong behind its commitment to promote Saudi talent development and to create jobs for its skilled young nationals. Through training, knowledge transfer and building research capabilities, GE is supporting the Kingdom’s vision and development plan.
Partnering with the public and private sector to help develop Saudi human capital, GE has supported path-breaking projects in innovation, healthcare and energy. Some of the key centers GE has launched through its partnerships include the GE Saudi Innovation Center in Dhahran Techno-Valley, the Healthcare Skills and Training Institute at King Fahd Medical City (KFMC), and the GE Manufacturing Technology Center (GEMTEC) in Dammam. In 2013, Saudization at the GE Manufacturing Technology Center (GEMTEC) reached 77%, a 17% increase from the previous year which also included the hiring of the first two Saudi female engineers in the facility.
