Bahrain leads the region in its state of ICT readiness and access, usage, and skills capability. With high Internet penetration levels, as well as integration of mobile and broadband access, the growth of the ICT sector contributes significantly XXX GDP to the economy. Bahrain champions the move to business digitisation, backed by a liberal regulatory environment. Attractive factors for incoming investors are competitive operating costs, strong connectivity, and well-skilled, local manpower resources.

Bahrain has a highly developed ICT infrastructure, and has ranked number 1 in MENA for the 4th consecutive year in the U.N. International Communications Union – ICT Development Index.

This mature and effective sector is locally inspired, but diverse in its skills and personnel, with 48 percent of its workforce being Bahraini graduates, and 90 percent being bilingual. This trend is synonymous with Bahrain’s talented and varied workforces. The ability to support shared services operations in the GCC makes Bahrain a preferred choice as a regional hub for well-established businesses as well as startups.

Cloud technology is key in the current and future transformation of regional economies. With its ability to store, retrieve and share data, cloud technology is promising to offer companies the potential to gain competitive advantage, permitting them to compete more effectively globally and at lower cost. The reach of the cloud is universal, but Bahrain is home to a deep pool of technology talent and entrepreneurship.

This digital infrastructure will speed economic diversification in the Kingdom, with additional career opportunities, and improved efficiencies at government services levels.
