Riyadh - Sharikat Mubasher: Saudi Arabia’s mega business and tourism project Neom opened its first office in New York which will serve as a base for Neom’s business across the United States, a recent statement unveiled.

The opening ceremony was attended by the Saudi Ambassador to the US Reema Al Saud and CEO of Neom Nadhmi Al-Nasr, in addition to several guests and strategic partners.

The New York office will present an opportunity to explore new partnerships and investments from the US, consolidate existing relationships between Neom and the US entities, and accelerate Neom’s efforts to address global challenges by redefining livability, business, and conservation.

Al Saud stated that Neom’s impacts extend beyond Saudi Arabia as it serves as a catalyst for innovation, sustainable development, and economic diversification.

For his part, Al-Nasr said: “In order to continue to achieve the vision of Neom, it is imperative that we work alongside global partners that can accelerate our efforts. We chose New York City as our second international NEOM office due to its position as a global capital for business and finance.”

“NEOM has already established many investments and partnerships with U.S. entities, and through this office, we intend to build our relationships among key industry verticals and business sectors,” Al-Nasr added.

It is worth noting that Neom launched an office in London last November.
