Destination: Epicon

Saudi Arabia continues to materialise luxury through giga-projects, turning the once oil-explorative country into a tourist haven, heralding a new age of technology and hospitality. As part of this effort, the NEOM team have recently announced Epicon.

Described as a shimmering sanctuary situated in the northern limits of the coastal plain, the ultra-luxury hotel seeks to house unparalleled unequalled service, amid a transcendental landscape. A place for free things and the spiritual, “a starting point of great adventures.”

The otherworldly escape is designed to be remote, with all the services a person can desire situated in a distant location, allowing for optional isolation and an ultimate tourism experience. However, such isolation requires bespoke security.

Teams onsite must be able to operate completely independently, removed from the backup of larger cities, as a result, these teams will be advanced in both technology and training, developed with modern security challenges in mind, alongside specific training which meets the needs of the luxury remote area that makes up Epicon.
