The Prime Minister would also participate in the sixth edition of the Future Investment Initiative (FII), powered by the Future Investment Initiative Institute.
Growing 'Davos in the Desert' a sign of Saudi clout
FII will be held in Riyadh from 25-27 October 2022 and will convene the world’s foremost CEOs, policymakers, investors, entrepreneurs, and young leaders to shape the future of international investment and the global economy, according to a statement posted on official website of the FII Institute.
Last year’s theme — Invest in Humanity — continues to guide our thinking for this year’s FII. Economic opportunities abound across every continent — but supply shocks, inflation, a global energy crisis, and geopolitical conflicts present deep challenges.
This year’s FII will include in-depth conversations about new pathways for global investment; analysis of critical industry trends; and unparalleled networking among CEOs, world leaders, and experts.
