This edition offers an extensive overview of the Future Investment Initiative (FII9) in Riyadh, highlighting Saudi Arabia's dramatic economic transformation under Vision 2030. A central theme is the strategic importance and massive investment being directed towards artificial intelligence, with national capabilities and governance frameworks being established to create a “Silicon Desert.” Discussions focused on global finance, particularly the rapid growth of private capital, the increasing importance of tokenization for modernising the financial system, and the Public Investment Fund’s pivot toward profitability and co-investment opportunities. Furthermore, the FII9 showcased global and regional collaboration in areas like sustainable infrastructure, health, and tourism, underscoring the Kingdom’s emergence as a major, action-oriented global investment hub.
