SOLOWIN Enters Saudi Market to Drive Web3 and Data Science Through CITIC Partnership

Strategic collaboration expands investment offerings and lays groundwork for tokenized real estate opportunities

SOLOWIN HOLDINGS, a leading financial services firm providing comprehensive solutions across traditional and digital assets, announced that its US$-denominated fund, Solomon Capital SP, has entered a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with CITIC Contracting Company (“CITIC”) to co-develop next-generation digital infrastructure in Saudi Arabia, with an initial focus on data science, commercial real estate and logistics parks.

This collaboration aims to bridge the gap between the private real estate market and investor demand for diversified yield-generating alternatives. By integrating Solowin’s technology-driven platform with CITIC’s seasoned real estate investment expertise, the partnership addresses the rapidly growing demand for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization across the Middle East market.

Peter Lok, CEO of Solowin, noted: “This partnership aligns with Saudi Vision 2030’s digital transformation goals. By combining CITIC’s on-ground execution capabilities with our regulated stablecoin infrastructure, we create a blueprint for modernizing traditional assets.”
