Saudi-German Business and Investment Cooperation Webinar

Saudi-German Business and Investment Cooperation Webinar

A lot still seems unpredictable, but we can also observe clear tendencies and spot new opportunities. This holds especially true when focusing on international business activities. Partnering with the Saudi Ministry of Investment, we would like to launch a platform for discussing these tendencies and opportunities with respect to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is Germany’s second most important trading partner in the Arabian region and the largest economy in the Arab world. In 2019, the German-Saudi trading volume reached 7.9 bn. US-Dollar. Moreover, Saudi Arabia is not only a member state of the G20, but even assumes the G20 2020 Presidency. Saudi Arabia offers numerous attractive business opportunities. The Kingdom undertakes a wide range of efforts in diversification in order to reduce its dependence on oil. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia advances privatization in various sectors. Thus, various new possibilities for German companies arise. Currently, profitable business prospects for local, national and international companies emerge within numerous branches – especially energy, health, industrialization, infrastructure, transport, environment and water.
