dmg events has reinforced its commitment to Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 by entering into a strategic partnership with the Riyadh Infrastructure Projects Center (RIPC). The collaboration was formalized through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly organize the third edition of the Saudi Infrastructure Expo, underscoring both parties’ dedication to advancing the Kingdom’s infrastructure sector.
The Saudi Infrastructure Expo will take place from 24 to 26 September 2024 at the Riyadh International Convention & Exhibition Centre, under the esteemed patronage of His Highness Prince Dr. Faisal bin Abdulaziz bin Ayyaf, Mayor of the Riyadh Region and Chairman of the Board of RIPC. Now in its third year, the Expo is set to welcome 17,000 visitors and feature over 350 exhibitors from more than 35 countries. The event will be co-located with the Global Water Expo and Smart Cities Saudi Expo, creating an integrated platform for innovation and collaboration across multiple sectors.
RIPC CEO, Eng. Fahad Al Badah, emphasized the significance of the partnership, stating that the collaboration with dmg events aligns with RIPC’s mission to enhance Riyadh’s infrastructure, contributing to the Kingdom’s broader Vision 2030 goals. “Partnering with dmg events for the Saudi Infrastructure Expo is a pivotal move for RIPC. This partnership will not only support Vision 2030’s objectives of economic growth but also enhance Riyadh’s infrastructure capabilities, contributing to the sustainable development of Saudi Arabia and building a prosperous and diversified economy,” said Al Badah.
For dmg events, this partnership is equally important. Muhammed Kazi, Senior Vice President at dmg events, highlighted the Expo’s role in fostering essential relationships and driving innovation in the Kingdom. “Our partnership with RIPC is vital for the success of the Saudi Infrastructure Expo. Together, we aim to bring key stakeholders, industry leaders, and innovators together to drive forward Saudi Arabia’s infrastructure development. This collaboration will facilitate partnerships that are crucial for the sector’s growth, supporting the national vision and contributing to the Kingdom’s sustainable development,” Kazi remarked.
The Riyadh Infrastructure Projects Center (RIPC) was established by a decree from the Saudi Council of Ministers in July 2023. Its primary mission is to improve the quality of life in Riyadh by enhancing the region’s infrastructure while ensuring cost efficiency. The center aims to create a more sustainable and effective urban landscape, making it a key player in the development of infrastructure across Saudi Arabia.
dmg events, with over a decade of experience in the Kingdom, continues to be a leading force in organizing high-profile, face-to-face events that drive market growth. With offices in Riyadh and Jeddah, dmg events organizes more than 30 events annually, including The Big 5 Construct Saudi, Saudi Food Show, The Hotel Show Saudi Arabia, and INDEX Saudi Arabia. These events create essential business connections, contributing to the Kingdom’s ambitious Vision 2030 transformation goals.
The Saudi Infrastructure Expo, in particular, will provide a critical platform for decision-makers, experts, and industry professionals to engage in discussions and explore the latest innovations in infrastructure development. With the co-located Global Water Expo and Smart Cities Saudi Expo, the event will tackle key challenges and opportunities in water management, urban development, and the integration of smart technologies—all central to Saudi Arabia’s vision of creating a sustainable and modern infrastructure network.
