Abstract: This study explores the role of information technology (IT) in supporting sustainability efforts in Saudi Arabia. Through an analysis of four case studies, we examine how technology has been implemented by Saudi Arabian companies to advance sustainability goals. The findings demonstrate a notable shift towards green initiatives in the country, with the adoption of technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, and artificial intelligence. These technologies have been instrumental in enhancing energy efficiency and waste reduction. The study highlights the significance of policy interventions and public-private partnerships in achieving both environmental sustainability and economic growth. To ensure widespread adoption of sustainable practices, it is crucial for the government to focus on building digital capacity in companies and removing technological barriers. The case studies of four companies serve as illustrative ex les of sustainable practices and the corresponding technological support in Saudi Arabia. The research underscores the importance of leveraging information technology and collaboration to accelerate progress towards the nation& #039 s sustainability goals.

Abstract: This study examines how information technology (IT) contributes to sustainability endeavours in Saudi Arabia. The process of equipping companies to effectively leverage information technology for sustainability initiatives has remained a challenge, particularly in Saudi Arabia. Through an analysis of four case studies, we examine how technology has been implemented by Saudi Arabian companies to advance sustainability goals. The findings demonstrate a notable shift towards green initiatives in the country, with the adoption of technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, and artificial intelligence (AI). These technologies have been instrumental in enhancing energy efficiency and waste reduction. The study highlights the significance of policy interventions and public–private partnerships in achieving both environmental sustainability and economic growth. To ensure the widespread adoption of sustainable practices, it is crucial for the government to focus on building digital capacity in companies and removing technological barriers. The case studies of four companies serve as illustrative ex les of sustainable practices and the corresponding technological support in Saudi Arabia. The research underscores the importance of leveraging IT and collaboration to accelerate progress toward the nation’s sustainability goals.
