Knowledge Economic City
From Taighde
Knowledge Economic City is a planned city being developed in Saudi Arabia. Over the next few years, Saudi officials say this stretch of desert will be transformed into a buzzing hub of scientific research and development, with cutting-edge universities, hospitals and housing for more than 130,000 people attracted by the idea of living in the city where Islam's prophet Muhammad is buried.
The Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority is coordinating the project.
