The government press conference, on Monday, January 26, 2026, will host His Excellency the Minister of Investment, Engineer Khalid bin Abdulaziz Al-Falih, to talk about the growing investment landscape in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and to review the most prominent achievements made by the system during the past period.
Conference agenda and key themes
During the conference, which will be broadcast live on official channels, His Excellency the Minister is scheduled to address a number of vital issues that form the backbone of the national economy at this stage. The discussion will focus on reviewing figures and indicators reflecting the growth of foreign and domestic investments, as well as highlighting the tangible economic impact of these investments on non-oil GDP.
Engineer Khalid Al-Falih will also give a comprehensive overview of the future directions of the investment system and the next steps to enhance the Kingdom’s attractiveness as a global investment destination, before opening the floor to answer questions from journalists and attendees on various economic issues.
National Investment Strategy: A Pillar of Transformation
This conference comes in the context of ongoing efforts to activate the objectives of the National Investment Strategy, launched by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which is one of the main enablers for achieving the Kingdom’s Vision 2030. This strategy aims to increase net foreign direct investment flows and increase local investment, thereby contributing to diversifying sources of income and reducing dependence on oil.
In recent years, the Kingdom has witnessed unprecedented legislative and regulatory reforms that have contributed to improving the business environment and facilitating the investor's journey, making the Saudi market the focus of attention for major international companies, especially with the activation of the regional headquarters program that has attracted hundreds of companies to make Riyadh their headquarters.
Enhancing global economic standing
This conference is of particular importance given the current period of significant economic activity in the Kingdom, where the Ministry of Investment plays a pivotal role in building international partnerships and localizing promising technologies and industries. The Minister is expected to address the impact of these partnerships on creating quality job opportunities for citizens, enhancing local content, and connecting the Kingdom to global supply chains.
Broadcasting channels
The Ministry of Media called on interested parties and specialists to follow the proceedings of the government press conference, which will be broadcast via Saudi television channels, the "Shahid" platform, in addition to the official accounts of the Ministry of Media and the live broadcast platform on social media networks, in order to ensure that accurate and reliable information reaches the local and international public.
