LINK Development, the software development subsidiary of LINKdotNET, and a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner has used its long-term
strategic partnership with the world-leading software company, to ensure that IT
professionals in Saudi Arabia have been among the first in the world to experience
the launch of Windows Server 2008.
The launch was the largest enterprise launch in Microsoft's history, and LINK Development
further illustrate its commitment to the Kingdom by sponsoring the first wave of
presentations which took place in Jeddah, Al Khobar and Riyadh last week.
LINK Development has consistently adopted new Microsoft technologies ahead of other
companies in order to deliver industry-leading Internet solutions to Middle East

"Our commitment to Saudi Arabia is stronger today than when we entered the market
four years ago," says Hesham El Beih, LINKdotNET Saudi Arabia Manager. "We are proud
to include many leading government departments and companies on our fast-growing
client list. These include Saudi Post, the Ministry of Interior, Saudi Electricity
Company (SEC) and Abdullatif al Jameel to name but a few.

"We are also proud to be one of a select few Microsoft partners around the world
who are joining forces for this major launch which kicked off in Los Angeles at
the end of February."
"We had been gearing up for the new enterprise and developer platform in the shape
of Windows Server 2008, Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2008,"
says Hanan Abdel Meguid, LINK Development CEO. "Now with its arrival we joined forces
to explain in detail about Microsoft’s tools and technologies that will help IT
professionals and developers work impressively.
"The launch programme drew 3000 visitors from all sectors of Saudi Government and
business and provided them with an early opportunity to experience the new Microsoft
products, and also participate in Q & A sessions. Experts from Microsoft and LINK
Development were on hand to network. The icing on the cake was that everyone who
attended left the events with all 3 new products to try."
