Nedap expands presence in Saudi Arabia with new office
New local presence strengthens support for partners and customers across the Kingdom

Nedap (AMS:NEDAP), a global leader in Digital Twin Technology and access management solutions, announces the opening of a new office in Saudi Arabia, marking a further step in its expansion across the Middle East. With a strong customer base in the Kingdom, Nedap’s solutions support organizations in managing secure, scalable, and data-driven access environments across critical sectors. Over the last decade, it’s been instrumental in security projects in the Kingdom across sectors, including oil and gas, industrial, commercial, government, education, finance, and healthcare. This local office will enable closer collaboration with partners and stronger support for end users, particularly on projects requiring scalable and integrated security solutions.

The expansion comes at a time when Saudi Arabia is investing heavily in large-scale infrastructure, smart cities, and modern workplaces. In these environments, security is no longer a standalone function but an integrated, data-driven capability. Nedap’s access management solutions enable organizations to manage identities, assets, and access rights across complex, connected environments—bridging the physical and digital worlds to improve security, efficiency, and control.

“Saudi Arabia is a key growth market for Nedap, both in terms of scale and long-term development,” said Maarten Van Cauwenberghe, Managing Director META & APAC. “We see increasing demand for solutions that help organizations manage identities, access, and security policies across complex environments. Establishing a local presence allows us to support our partners and engage closely with customers in enabling the deployment of integrated solutions that can scale and adapt over time.”

To further develop its activities in the Kingdom, Nedap has appointed Junaid Ul Haq as Country Director for Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. Based locally, he will focus on supporting partners, engaging with customers, and building a team to strengthen the positioning of Nedap’s access management solutions across key sectors.

Nedap’s solutions include AEOS, its access control platform, as well as identity and access management solutions, mobile access, RFID readers, and locker management. Built on open architecture, these solutions integrate seamlessly with third-party systems, supporting organizations in managing access, identities, and security processes across complex environments.

“As projects in Saudi Arabia continue to grow in scale and complexity, a local presence has become essential,” said Junaid Ul Haq, Country Director for Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. “By strengthening our team on the ground, we work closely with partners and customers to support the implementation of solutions that help enable secure and efficient operations, in line with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 ambitions.”

With its new office in Saudi Arabia, Nedap aims to strengthen collaboration with regional partners and support partners and organizations in managing secure, scalable environments across the Kingdom.

Groenlo, The Netherlands, 3 December 2025

Nedap and iLOQ announce strategic technology partnership for future–proof access solutions

Nedap (AMS:NEDAP), a global leader in physical security solutions, announces a strategic technology partnership with iLOQ, a leading player in battery–free locking systems. At a time when organizations increasingly demand integrated, intelligent building security, and a seamless user experience, the two companies are joining forces to deliver an advanced and user–friendly access solution.

The collaboration focuses on a deep integration between Nedap’s AEOS platform and iLOQ’s battery–free digital locking system. This combined solution provides a powerful approach that supports both online access control and energy–efficient, autonomous locking technology. It enables organizations to centrally manage access points in a future–proof way – regardless of door type, location, or physical environment.

The iLOQ product line fits seamlessly with Nedap’s strong focus on mobile access.

By fully leveraging smartphones as digital key carriers, the solution aligns perfectly with market demand for frictionless, secure, and energy–efficient access solutions. Combining iLOQ technology with the AEOS platform and Nedap Wallet credentials for Apple and Google creates a harmonized mobile–first experience that enhances both operational efficiency and user convenience.

“The world is clearly moving toward unifying security systems and access through your phone,” explains Jeroen van Os, Commercial Integrations Manager at Nedap Security. “Through this partnership, we can offer customers an integrated solution that is easier to use, simple to manage, and fully prepared for a mobile–first future.”

“Our collaboration with Nedap brings iLOQ’s battery–free technology within reach for large enterprises seeking high–quality access solutions,” states Ferry Nekkers, Sales Director Europe at iLOQ. “With AEOS as an open platform and iLOQ smart locks as a proven mobile access solution, we jointly deliver a combination that strikes the perfect balance between security, sustainability, and ease of use.”

The partnership particularly targets sectors with high demands for reliability, continuity, and scalability, such as critical infrastructure, utilities, industry, and healthcare. The open–platform vision shared by both companies ensures that integrations can be easily expanded, providing customers with maximum flexibility and long–term future readiness.

The first integrated features are expected to become available in Q1 2026, followed by further joint innovations.
