01:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

03:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:11 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:49 Yes, well, this is a great question.
04:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

07:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:20 This is a great question, Maysa.
07:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:39 Yes, so I think your question comprises two parts.
08:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:11 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

09:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:00 Yes, great question.
10:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:47 Yes, so under the national strategy for the use
11:50 of electronic sports, the objective of the program,
11:53 for which we're all responsible, SABI and many other major
11:56 projects, GigaProjects, and forth,
11:58 and many other projects, the goal is to reach 250 game-related
12:03 clubs established in the country,
12:05 and about 39,000 are created throughout.
12:08 So 1/3 is very ambitious, but it is achievable.
12:12 And the one thing that we learned from,
12:14 in my almost 30 years of business and in my work in this region
12:18 and in regions around the world, the Chinese, as an example,
12:21 are very good at telling their ancient history and lore
12:25 through the media and through the video games.
12:27 And this region in the Middle East
12:29 has equally compelling stories, history, and lore.
12:34 And this could be done equally well here,
12:36 and resonates very, very well with the regional audience,
12:39 being asked to be on.
12:41 And so we're working with a number of companies
12:43 who have been very good at telling stories
12:45 of their regions and their stories elsewhere.
12:48 And by coming to Saudi Arabia, bringing leadership,
12:50 hiring local people, and tapping into their history,
12:52 history, and lore.

14:13 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
14:16 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
14:19 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
14:22 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
14:25 Yes, this is a great question.
14:51 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
14:54 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
14:58 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
15:01 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
15:04 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
15:07 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
15:10 [SPEAKING ARABIC]

15:30 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
15:33 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:01 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:04 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:33 Well, I think macroeconomically, there are things--
16:36 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:39 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:42 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:45 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:49 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:53 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:56 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
16:59 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:02 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:05 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:09 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:12 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:15 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:18 [SPEAKING ARABIC]

17:43 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:46 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:50 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:53 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:56 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
17:59 No, I don't think so.
18:25 I think that the market is growing and it's growing better than it is in the West.
18:35 Or even in China and South and East Asia.
18:38 And this is the second fastest growing market in the world.
18:41 And this is due to the services of the Western and Eastern publishers.
18:46 Honestly, with the presence of the most active players in the MENA region compared to Western Europe or America.
18:52 I think this is in the best interest of the region.
18:56 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
18:59 I think it's about 5 or 6 percentage points above that worldwide average.
19:18 And I think the salary market is anticipated to be around $3 billion by 2026.
19:26 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
19:29 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
19:32 Well, I think if we're speaking about e-sports--
19:56 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
19:59 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
20:02 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
20:05 [SPEAKING ARABIC]

20:11 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
20:15 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
20:18 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
20:21 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
20:50 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
20:53 Yes.
21:17 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
21:20 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
21:23 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
21:27 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
21:31 [SPEAKING ARABIC]

22:02 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
22:05 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
22:08 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
22:11 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
22:38 Well, this is the reason we're here, actually, at SAVI.
22:41 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
22:44 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
22:47 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
22:50 [SPEAKING ARABIC]

23:03 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
23:06 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
23:09 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
23:12 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
23:40 Call of duty.
23:42 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
23:45 Well, I can't tell you--
23:56 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
23:59 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
24:03 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
24:06 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
24:09 [SPEAKING ARABIC]

24:24 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
24:27 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
24:30 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
24:33 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
25:01 Well, whether we're a listed entity eventually--
25:04 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
25:07 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
25:10 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
25:13 [SPEAKING ARABIC]
