This initiative drives the Kingdom’s digital transformation, strongly aligning with the connectivity and sustainability pillars of Saudi Vision 2030.

Expanding Smart Living and Built-In Solutions in Saudi Arabia

As Saudi Arabia undergoes rapid urban development in line with Vision 2030, LG is uniquely positioned to meet the growing demand for integrated smart building solutions. The Riyadh Experience Zone demonstrates LG’s unique B2B differentiators to target segments like real estate developers, hospitality, and property managers: providing a holistic ecosystem that combines sleek, built-in appliances with a unified smart-home network in one comprehensive package.

For consumers, this delivers an end-to-end smart home experience. For B2B clients, these combined technologies mean a single, unified package that balances convenience, security, and sustainability, significantly streamlining the procurement process for large-scale development projects.

Revolutionizing the Home with ThinQ ON and Affectionate Intelligence

Positioned as the centerpiece of the new Riyadh AI Home Experience Zone is the revolutionary LG ThinQ ON AI home hub. Powered by LG’s unique “Affectionate Intelligence,” the ThinQ ON hub continuously learns from individual usage patterns to tailor daily experiences, accelerating the realization of LG’s “Zero Labor Home” vision.

Through generative AI, users can control their living spaces with natural spoken commands. Built for ultimate expandability in both residential and commercial settings, LG ThinQ ON is Matter-certified and seamlessly connects to over 50,000 devices via the Homey Pro platform. Furthermore, all data is fiercely protected by LG Shield, the company’s proprietary security system that encrypts and securely stores user information.

A Sustainable and Connected Ecosystem Advancing Saudi Vision 2030

Within the AI Home Experience Zone, visitors can witness live demonstrations of how LG’s AI-driven appliances merge with partner Schneider Electric’s leadership in energy management. This synergy allows homes in the Kingdom to adapt to daily routines, including automating lighting, cooling, and appliances to match user needs while optimizing energy consumption. The result is a highly efficient home that lowers utility costs and directly supports Saudi Vision 2030’s broader sustainability and carbon-reduction goals by promoting greener, smarter urban living.

“The inauguration of our first AI Home Experience Zone in Riyadh is a landmark moment for LG in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, bringing our vision of the ‘Zero Labor Home’ to life in line with local goals,” said Mr. Jungho (Sunny) Kim, Managing Director at LG Saudi Arabia. “By integrating with world-class partners like Schneider Electric, Hikvision, and Assa Abloy and centering our ecosystem around the intuitive ThinQ ON AI hub, we are redefining what it means to live smart. We are empowering our customers with affectionate intelligence that anticipates their needs, ensures their security, and champions energy efficiency.”
