NEOM, the centerpiece of this endeavor, is a part of Saudi Crown Prince HRH Muhammad Bin Salman’s Vision 2030 reform program. This visionary initiative aims not only to diversify the nation’s oil-based economy but also to transform society, creating a flexible economy capable of meeting the challenges of the modern world.
NEOM’s grand designs span a wide range of regions, featuring a floating industrial complex, a global trade hub, opulent tourist resorts, and a cutting-edge linear city powered by sustainable and renewable energy sources.
