LG Electronics has opened the Middle East region's first B2B exclusive AI home experience space in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and launched integrated solution sales targeting local construction and hospitality industries. The company is using the rapidly growing Middle East smart home market as a bridgehead to substantially expand its Global South B2B business.
 
LG Electronics officially opened the experience space on the 14th at the Riyadh brand shop, designed with local premium residential spaces including living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, and bathrooms as motifs. The space is equipped with locally customized built-in appliances such as ovens, range hoods, and refrigerators, and also features furniture created through collaboration with lifestyle brands, creating an environment that resembles an actual residential setting.

 
The core of the experience space is the AI home hub ThinQ On.

The space can be controlled through generative AI-based voice commands, and by linking with the smart home platform 'Homey Pro,' various IoT devices distributed in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa regions can be connected.

Additionally, in cooperation with partners such as Schneider Electric and Assa Abloy, the company has introduced building management turnkey solutions encompassing HVAC, power management, and security.

According to market research firm Grand View Horizon, the Saudi smart home market is estimated to grow at a compound annual growth rate of over 27%, from approximately $2 billion in 2024 to approximately $8.7 billion in 2030.

LG Electronics plans to operate this experience space as a regional B2B showroom hub, and will expand customer touchpoints to major cities such as Jeddah and Dammam within this year.
 
In Korea, LG Electronics has applied AI home solutions to over 1 million units in collaboration with major construction companies, in North America it is targeting the builder market with 'LG ThinQ Pro,' and in Europe it is pursuing eco-friendly demand with energy management systems (HEMS) based on 'Homey.'
 
Kim Sung-jae, executive vice president of the HS Overseas Sales Group at LG Electronics, said, "Starting with this Riyadh AI home experience space, we will establish ourselves as a trusted B2B partner in local infrastructure construction projects in the Middle East, leading with customized solutions."
