Designed as an immersive, experience-led destination, the store brings together seamless connectivity, transparent plans, and Virgin Mobile\u2019s signature service ethos in a space built around how customers want to connect today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The opening also underscores BeyondONE\u2019s strategic focus on Saudi Arabia as a priority growth market and its alignment with Vision 2030 ambitions to build a digitally empowered society, foster innovation, and raise service standards across key sectors, including telecommunications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u201cThis flagship opening is more than a retail milestone, it reflects BeyondONE\u2019s belief in Saudi Arabia\u2019s digital future and our commitment to building services that put customers firmly at the centre,\u201d said Yaarob Al Sayegh, CEO of BeyondONE in Saudi Arabia. \u201cBy bringing Virgin Mobile\u2019s digital-first philosophy into a physical space, we are redefining how customers experience connectivity while supporting the Kingdom\u2019s vision for innovation, choice, and world-class service.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>In a world increasingly shaped by constant connectivity, digital noise, and surface-level interactions, Virgin Mobile champions the power of real, meaningful connection. This philosophy comes to life through the flagship store\u2019s standout \u201csilent tunnel\u201d, a dedicated space where visitors can momentarily disconnect, reset, and reconnect with themselves. The experience reinforces Virgin Mobile\u2019s view that true connection begins from within, positioning the brand not just as a mobile provider, but as an enabler of more mindful, authentic moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/gulftech-news.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-01-29-at-09.32.32-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\" Sir Richard Branson, Founder of the Virgin Group\" class=\"wp-image-84784\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gulftech-news.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-01-29-at-09.32.32-1024x683.jpeg?v=1769674196 1024w, https:\/\/gulftech-news.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-01-29-at-09.32.32-300x200.jpeg?v=1769674196 300w, https:\/\/gulftech-news.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-01-29-at-09.32.32-768x512.jpeg?v=1769674196 768w, https:\/\/gulftech-news.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-01-29-at-09.32.32-1536x1024.jpeg?v=1769674196 1536w, https:\/\/gulftech-news.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-01-29-at-09.32.32.jpeg?v=1769674196 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> Sir Richard Branson, Founder of the Virgin Group<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The flagship store was officially opened by Sir Richard Branson, Founder of the Virgin Group, who joined BeyondONE and Virgin Mobile leadership at the launch event in Riyadh.
