British-Saudi Sustainable Forum Focuses on Energy, Infrastructure Investments in Saudi Arabia
British investors at the British-Saudi Sustainable Infrastructure Summit in London expressed on Monday keen interest in investing in the renewable energy sector and sustainable infrastructure in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Their interests align with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 focus on leveraging renewable and green energy for major environmental and sustainability projects.
The forum was organized by the Saudi-British Business Council of the Federation of Saudi Chambers and the City of London Corporation. Taking part were representatives of the Ministry of Investment and over 250 policymakers, industry leaders, senior executives, and public and private sectors representatives from the two countries.
The summit highlighted the investment opportunities in Saudi Arabia’s five largest projects: NEOM, Qiddiya, the Red Sea Project, Roshen, and Diriyah. It also emphasized the importance of developing sustainable infrastructure projects, financing strategies, and the future of green technologies.
Saudi Arabia and Britain are witnessing growing economic ties, with trade volume reaching approximately SR25.7 billion, reflecting a 13.8% growth. Britain ranks 25th among the Kingdom’s export partners and 10th in terms of imports.
