History
editNaseej (earlier known as Arabian Advanced Systems[citation needed]) started by providing universities and information centers with access to professional information resources, primarily in electronic form, through so-called "CD-Towers". These servers hosted multiple CDs in 1989. The company helped libraries transform from paper-based card catalogs to electronic cataloging, using the Horizon Library Management System. They launched the brand “Naseej” in 1997 as the first of its kind to provide Internet access and web services in Saudi Arabia, and one of the first Arabic Internet portals.[1] In 1998, Naseej became the first licensed Internet service provider (ISP) in Saudi Arabia. The ISP division of Naseej would later be part of a three-way merger with AwalNet (Alfaisaliah Group Internet service provider) and @Net (Alalamiah Internet service provider) to form the largest Internet service providers in the GCC (later acquired by Saudi Telecom Company).[citation needed]
