AUTOMOTIVE

Saudi Arabia is becoming a global hub for advanced vehicle manufacturing and mobility technology. Over $5 billion in investments are driving a capacity to produce 300,000 vehicles annually by 2030. Strategic deals, like the $2.2 billion partnership with Hyundai Transys, are enabling full-spectrum manufacturing; from EVs by Lucid and Ceer to local battery supply. Join this technology-led transformation and invest in the region’s fast-growing automotive market.

CONSTRUCTION

Saudi Arabia’s construction sector, set to hit $174.4 billion by 2030, is transforming into a global leader in smart building. Mega-projects like NEOM and the Riyadh Metro are driving adoption of 3D printing, AI and Building Information Modelling to streamline delivery. Developments such as the New Murabba will add $48 billion to GDP and create 330,000+ jobs by 2030. For investors, developers and innovators, Saudi offers a growth opportunity that can’t be missed.

FOOD & BEVERAGE

Saudi Arabia's F&B sector is a high-growth market, valued at $24.29 billion in 2025. Driven by national food security goals, the Kingdom is rapidly adopting advanced manufacturing and AI. The $5.3 billion Jeddah Food Cluster highlights this commitment. With its strategic location, government backing, and tech-savvy population, Saudi Arabia offers international partners unparalleled opportunities to enter a market where innovation is the top priority.

AEROSPACE & DEFENCE

Saudi Arabia's aerospace and defence sector, valued at $17.31 billion in 2025, is rapidly expanding. The Kingdom is localising 50% of its military spending through Vision 2030, creating a high-tech ecosystem. With a $78 billion defence budget, Saudi Arabia is seeking partners for advanced manufacturing and technology transfer, positioning itself as a global hub for AI, composites and drone production.

PHARMA & BIOTECH

Saudi Arabia’s pharma and biotech sector is a high-growth market, projected to reach over $15.5 billion by 2030. This expansion is driven by the National Biotechnology Strategy, which aims to transform the Kingdom into a global epicentre by 2040. Key opportunities include localising vaccine manufacturing, gene therapy and biopharmaceuticals. With significant government investment and a focus on precision medicine, Saudi Arabia is a prime destination for technology transfer, R&D partnerships, and foreign investment.

OIL & GAS

Saudi Arabia's oil and gas sector is driving significant growth through technology-led transformation. The Kingdom is investing heavily in advanced manufacturing, AI and digitalisation to boost efficiency and sustainability. With a projected $40 billion in upstream investment for 2025, opportunities abound for international partnerships in R&D, tech transfer and high-value projects like the Jafurah gas field. Saudi Arabia's strategic position and commitment to innovation make it a critical focal point for the next generation of energy production.

MINING & MINERALS

Saudi Arabia’s mining sector is poised for explosive growth — aiming for $75 billion by 2035, up from $17 billion. With an estimated $2.5 trillion in untapped mineral wealth, the Kingdom is investing heavily in technology-led exploration, smart processing and rare-earth supply chains. PIF-backed Ma’aden is deploying AI, robotics and digital twin systems, while a landmark MOU with MP Materials targets local rare-earth refining and magnet production — transforming Saudi into a critical, future-ready industrial powerhouse.

PETROCHEMICALS

Saudi Arabia's petrochemicals sector is a global powerhouse with a market value that accounts for nearly 80% of the GCC's petrochemical revenue. It is an innovation-driven stage for mega-projects, with flagship investments like the $11 billion Amiral Complex. The Kingdom is adopting advanced technologies like AI and automation to enhance efficiency, reduce emissions and increase production of high-value specialty chemicals, strengthening its position in the global supply chain.

SUPPLY CHAIN & LOGISTICS

Saudi Arabia’s logistics market stands at $136.3 billion in 2024, projected to reach $198.9 billion by 2030, driven by digital tools like AI, IoT and blockchain and infrastructure upgrades across ports, airports and railways. With $2.66 billion invested in 18 new logistics zones, Saudi is redefining smart supply chains. This expansion offers unmatched opportunities for investors, tech developers and industrial partners in an increasingly dynamic ecosystem.
