One in Every Four New Enterprise Clients in H1 2025 Switched From Global CXM Vendors to Lucidya - Middle East Business News and Information
Clients cite Lucidya's advanced Arabic natural language processing, deep CX focus, and regional expertise as decisive factors. The platform currently supports over 15 Arabic dialects with 92% sentiment analysis accuracy, significantly outperforming global alternatives.
A key driver behind this shift is Lucidya's alignment with local data privacy regulations, including compliance with Saudi Arabia's National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA) guidelines and Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL). This makes Lucidya the preferred choice for highly regulated sectors such as government, telecom, and finance.
'Arabic AI accuracy and regional CX leadership are driving this exciting market shift,' said Muhannad Al Shaikh, Chief Commercial Officer at Lucidya. 'Clients choose Lucidya because they see measurable results. Our technology understands context, is fully compliant with local and global regulations, and delivers insights that drive real impact.'
This momentum follows a series of strategic leadership appointments earlier this year that have strengthened Lucidya's commercial, product, and go-to-market capabilities, further accelerating regional expansion.

Saudi Arabia Ranks First Globally in Cybersecurity Competitiveness
Saudi Arabia ranks first in the IMD 2025 cybersecurity index, marking a major milestone in its proactive strategy to build a secure, resilient, and globally competitive cyber ecosystem. Saudi Arabia has secured the top global position in cybersecurity competitiveness, according to the 2025 edition of the IMD World Competitiveness Yearbook. The ranking highlights the Kingdom's growing strength in developing a secure, resilient, and forward-looking cyber ecosystem at both the national and international levels. The achievement builds on Saudi Arabia's earlier classification as a Tier 1 'Role-modelling' country in the 2024 Global Cybersecurity Index issued by the International Telecommunication Union, underlining the Kingdom's status as a global reference point in the field. The success reflects a deliberate national strategy that integrates cybersecurity into broader development efforts while safeguarding key sectors. Central to this progress is the National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA), which serves as the Kingdom's primary entity for regulating and enhancing cybersecurity. The NCA is tasked with protecting national interests, critical infrastructure, and government services, as well as developing frameworks, standards, and policies for the sector. Alongside the Saudi Information Technology Company (SITE), the NCA is considered a core pillar of the Kingdom's cybersecurity model. The broader cybersecurity ecosystem in Saudi Arabia has benefitted from initiatives aimed at localising technologies, attracting investment, fostering innovation, and increasing international cooperation.
