The Saudi Times participated as an officially accredited media outlet at the ninth edition of the Future Investment Initiative (FII 9), hosted at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Center. The gathering convened heads of state, global executives, policymakers, investors, and innovators to investigate the ideas and capital shaping the next phase of the global economy.
Anchored in the publication’s Frontline 2030 mandate, this milestone engagement positioned The Saudi Times not merely as an observer, but as an editorial participant translating high-level discourse into grounded, actionable insight. Under the leadership of Editor-in-Chief Boudou Gueffai and Managing Editor Abeer Abdalla, coverage was curated through a Vision-first lens, tracking how capital, technology, and policy intersect with national priorities and long-term value creation.
FII’s agenda, spanning innovation, sustainability, artificial intelligence, and transformative investment mirrors the ambitions of Saudi Vision 2030. Through editorial concentration, The Saudi Times delivered real-time reporting, expert analysis, and select interviews that cut through spectacle to focus on substance: execution pathways, governance implications, and regional-to-global relevance.
Participation at FII 9 reinforces The Saudi Times’ mission to bridge global perspectives with Saudi-led insights. By foregrounding the Kingdom’s evolving role as a convenor, investor, and agenda-setter, Frontline 2030 advances a disciplined editorial approach, one that informs decision-makers, challenges assumptions, and elevates the quality of public discourse.
This engagement signals more than presence; it reflects a newsroom strategy built for influence. With a rigorous editorial framework and a forward-looking vision, The Saudi Times continues to scale as a credible, consequential media voice on the frontline of the Kingdom’s transformation and the global conversations it shapes.
