Dr. Fahd bin Mushayt has been executive chairman of the General Authority of the Diplomatic Quarter since January 2019.

Earlier, Mushayt was CEO of Bravo, a subsidiary of Saudi Telecom Co. (STC), a position he held for more than 18 years from 2000.

From 2000 to 2010 he worked in the STC corporate planning department as the strategic investments unit head, business development director, strategic planning director, concept and controlling manager and senior business analyst.

He also held other positions in the STC, including vice president of the business development department, vice president of corporate strategy and acting group chief strategy officer from 2011 to 2018.

He holds a bachelor’s degree in operation research from King Saud University in Riyadh and gained his master’s degree in economics from California State Polytechnic University in the US.

Mushayt gained a Ph.D. in political economy and public policy from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. His thesis explored the privatization of the telecommunication industry in Saudi Arabia.

The General Authority of the Diplomatic Quarter, together with King Saud University, has organized its first blood donation campaign, which promotes the authority’s partnership with the Ministry of Health.

“We are always working to serve the nation, and we bear a responsibility toward every citizen and resident, which comes in line with the authority’s national role and the efforts to realize the leadership’s ambitions,” Mushayt said.
