Collibra has secured a strategically important reference customer in Saudi Arabia, with Red Sea Global becoming the first organization in the Kingdom to go live on Collibra specifically for National Data Management Office and Personal Data Protection Law compliance. The deal positions Collibra at the center of Saudi Arabia’s data-governance buildout under Vision 2030, using its unified platform to automate complex privacy, sovereignty and regulatory workflows at scale.
Red Sea Global is deploying Collibra Data Catalog, Data Lineage and Data Quality & Observability to centralize data discovery, trace end-to-end data flows and continuously monitor data integrity, giving regulators and internal stakeholders verifiable oversight. For Collibra, this implementation showcases its ability to embed governance into daily operations rather than manual controls, creating a repeatable model for other regional enterprises that face similar NDMO and PDPL requirements.
Collibra’s CEO, Felix Van de Maele, framed the deployment as proof that unified governance can convert regulatory obligations into an operational capability that scales with business growth and future AI initiatives. By codifying NDMO and PDPL rules into Collibra workflows, Red Sea Global can demonstrate accountability for high volumes of sensitive guest and partner data, while Collibra strengthens its value proposition as a risk-reduction and enablement layer for data and AI.
The partnership includes a roadmap to extend into Collibra AI Governance, enabling Red Sea Global to register, monitor and control AI use cases with the same rigor applied to traditional data assets. This forward path gives Collibra an early foothold in AI governance in the Gulf region, where digital laws are tightening and tourism, real estate and infrastructure projects are scaling rapidly.
As a Public Investment Fund-backed developer with multiple luxury destinations and infrastructure projects, Red Sea Global offers Collibra a high-visibility showcase that could influence adoption among other PIF portfolio companies and regulated sectors in the Kingdom. For executives assessing Collibra, this deployment demonstrates the platform’s suitability for jurisdictions with stringent data-protection regimes and positions the company to benefit from the broader digitization and compliance investments tied to Saudi Arabia’s economic diversification agenda.
