On February 24, TK Elevator (TKE) and Alat, a Saudi Public Investment Fund company, announced they are forming a EUR160-million (US$167-million) joint venture (JV) to manufacture vertical-transportation (VT) solutions including elevators, escalators and moving walks in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) to support large-scale developments in KSA and the greater Middle East and North Africa region.
