Dear fellow members of the Press,

My name is Kseniia, I'm a communication manager at FIWARE Foundation
<http://www.fiware.org/>. I kindly share our latest Press Release on the
topic of "*Madinah City signed with FIWARE Foundation a Membership
Agreement at FIWARE Global Summit to become FIWARE’s 8th Platinum Member -
and for the first time a city Platinum Member"*, should you find it
suitable to your audience.


   - Madinah became the first city in the world to hold FIWARE's Platinum
   Membership, and got a seat on the FIWARE Board of Directors, next to the
   city of Vienna (Austria) and the city of Herne (Germany). FIWARE Foundation
   thus recognizes the regional leadership and the human and technological
   commitment of the *Madinah Smart City Program (MSCP) *and* its platform*,*
   Raseel, the first smart city platform implemented in Saudi Arabia*,
   powered by FIWARE.
   - Raseel is the intellectual property of Madinah Region Development
   Authority, which designed, developed, and implemented the platform through
   its Smart City Program. Raseel adopts open standards and open data concepts.
   - Madinah city is listed in IMD Smart City Index 2021, and ranked 2nd
   smart city in Saudi Arabia following the capital city of Riyadh, 4th
   regionally, and 73rd internationally. Madinah is an Early Adopter of ISO
   Smart City Indicators, among the first ten cities worldwide, accredited by
   the World Council for City Data. Madinah is the first city in Saudi Arabia
   to develop a comprehensive smart city strategy.
