Saudi US Forum

About Saudi US Forum Android App

The first convocation of the U.S.-Saudi Business Opportunities Forum was held in the U.S. in Chicago in 2010. Inspired by the vision of the Minister of Commerce and Industry, H.E. Abdullah Alireza, the event attracted a record setting 1,100 business men and women from both countries to explore new opportunities for collaboration and to expand existing business ties. It was the largest gathering of its kind to-date in the history of the Saudi-U.S. bilateral business relationship.

That event was followed by similarly successful Forums of the same scale and breadth in Atlanta in 2011 and Los Angeles in 2013. Now, under the patronage of H.E. Dr. Tawfig Alrabiah, Minister of Commerce and Industry, the 4th Saudi-U.S. Business Opportunities Forum has come home to Riyadh.

Each Forum has presented an unparalleled platform for updated reviews of major projects and priorities of Saudi Arabia's public and private sector as well as outstanding networking opportunities, and opportunities for serious one-on-one business meetings with potential new business partners.

While other large conference events focus on broad policy, socio-cultural, and academic issues and projections, the Forum has been and is a strictly business event. The previous three Forums have witnessed the signing of MOUs and new commercial agreements worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
