12:03 PM EST, 03/06/2024 (MT Newswires) -- UiPath ( PATH ) said Wednesday that Saudi Arabia has tapped the company's artificial intelligence-powered business automation platform to support the country's digital tourism strategy.

The company said Saudi's tourism ministry, which first used UiPath's ( PATH ) business automation platform in 2018 to build internal capabilities during the transition to a new national procurement platform, is now seeking to automate "external-facing" processes.

"This allows the Ministry to create and operate a fast and friendly interface that allows for better collaboration with external third parties from across Saudi Arabia's tourism ecosystem, such as hotels, popular destination sites, and cultural attractions," UiPath ( PATH ) said.

Terms of the deal weren't disclosed.

UiPath ( PATH ) shares were 3% higher in recent trading.
