BEIRUT
– Talal Abu-Ghazaleh for Technology (TAGTech), a member of Talal Abu-Ghazaleh
Global (TAG.Global), announced the arrival of its production lines to Beirut in
preparation for the opening of the first Arab technological devices factory in
Lebanon. The production lines will be manufacturing laptops, tablets, and
smartphones.
The
installation of the production lines will be completed at the Lebanese
University in the next few weeks, while the production of (made in Lebanon)
devices will be initiated for the first time before the end of this year. The
establishment of the new factory falls in line with the vision of HE Dr. Talal
Abu-Ghazaleh, founder and chairman of TAG.Global, which aims to implement the
Digital Transformation Strategy in Lebanon; launched by the Lebanese
government.
The
establishment of the factory came after several visits to Lebanon by Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh
during the year 2022, where he met with government and educational leaders
to discuss the implementation plan for digital transformation, e-government,
and fighting digital illiteracy. Last year, an agreement was signed between
TAG.Global and the Lebanese University to establish the first factory of its
kind to manufacture and produce technological devices with high
specifications and affordable prices in Lebanon to meet the needs of the
Lebanese market.
The
newly established TAGTech factory will provide opportunities for practical
technological training for university students and others. Additionally, a new
tablet will be manufactured for the first time to serve digital education in
Lebanese schools under the name ‘Smart School Bag’, which was announced by Dr.
Abu-Ghazaleh during his last visit to Lebanon.
It
is worth mentioning in addition to this factory in Lebanon, TAGTech has another
factories in Jordan, Egypt and China.
