Already the largest economy in the region and a key member of the G20, Saudi Arabia is undergoing an extraordinary economic boom. Massive public investment, rapid private-sector growth and new sector initiatives are driving an expansion projected to offer more than $1 trillion in trade and investment opportunities over the next decade.
This three-day Forum will highlight the U.S.-Saudi commercial and trade relationship and how U.S. companies can participate in Saudi Arabia’s expansion. It will also provide a unique platform for American and Saudi executives to establish new and lasting business ties.
As the second in a series of annual Forums to be conducted in different U.S. cities, this ongoing initiative also reflects the continued strength of ties between the United States and Saudi Arabia. During this period of severe global economic downturn and historic social and political upheaval across many regions including the Middle East, Saudi Arabia remains a stable and reliable partner. It is not only the regional economic powerhouse but also a leading voice for moderation and dialogue among Arab states and the Islamic world.
The 2011 Forum will feature Davos-style panels, keynote speakers, and concurrent breakout sessions. Specific areas of opportunity for small and medium sized companies will be highlighted. Networking events and one-on-one matchmaking programs will enable companies to connect on an individual level and initiate new business relationships.
