Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering to raise awareness about importance of effective waste management practices.

stc Group’s iot squared and Ericsson have inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) during the Mobile World Congress Barcelona 2024 in Spain, signaling their collaboration to introduce the Ericsson Connected Recycling (ECR) platform as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The partnership between these two industry giants aims to raise awareness about the critical importance of effective waste management practices while contributing to the realization of a more sustainable future in Saudi Arabia.

Ericsson Connected Recycling represents a comprehensive solution designed to address the environmental repercussions of waste accumulation. By digitalizing reverse supply chains, the platform facilitates optimization, enhanced traceability, transparency, and the potential monetization of waste materials. This approach aligns with global efforts to safeguard natural resources by promoting the recycling of waste materials rather than their disposal in landfills or through incineration.

As global momentum towards sustainability continues to gather pace, partnerships like the one between stc Group’s iot squared and Ericsson play a pivotal role in driving meaningful change and promoting environmental stewardship on a large scale. Stay tuned for further developments as the ECR platform prepares to revolutionize waste management practices in Saudi Arabia and beyond.
