Khalid Omar Al Kaf, managing director and CEO of Mobily, and some other senior officials of the company including Mohammed Jawdat, managing director SEEMEA, and Abdul Rahman Tarabzouni, country manager, Emerging Arabian Google, were among those present at the event.
Al Kaf said: “Mobily and Google share a number of values that lead them toward the leadership and passion for innovation in a fierce race to get the new technologies. After all, Mobily provides the latest technologies and most innovative products and services in the telecommunications sector. We were very keen to merge Mobily Connect products with the Google brand, and that’s how the idea of Connect Google Package was developed.
Al Kaf revealed Mobily’s intention to launch Connect Google, an added value package described as the first of its kind in Saudi Arabia. Connect Google allows access to all Google products and services such as Internet search, e-mail, social networking and Google Plus, which allows communication via network between individuals, as well as sharing of films and videos on YouTube.
Mobily said clients could subscribe to the Connect Google package through SMS or online, or through the company’s website and activate the package. Mobily also stated that the Connect Google package can be added to either one of 1 GB or 5 GB of Connect Mobile packages, or can be added to either 2 GB or 5 GB of Connect USB packages, thus allowing the subscribers to benefit from Google services and watch unlimited YouTube programs.
