Riyadh - Sharikat Mubasher: The Saudi Ministry of Investment (MISA) and the Ashariqia Chamber organized the Jubail Investment Forum 2025 on 27 and 28 April, in partnership with the Royal Commission for Jubail and Yanbu (RCJY) and with the participation of several government entities and authorities.

In his opening remarks, Minister Khalid Al-Falih revealed that over 700 investment opportunities in the Eastern Province are available through the ‘Invest Saudi’ platform, totalling more than SAR 330 billion.

The minister emphasized MISA’s efforts to promote these opportunities both domestically and internationally, attracting local and global investors. He highlighted the ministry’s collaboration with the Saudi Investment Promotion Authority (SIPA) to boost investment inflows.

Al-Falih noted that MISA issued 5,456 active foreign investment licenses by the beginning of 2025, creating more than 53,000 jobs.

Additionally, he announced that 34 international companies are preparing to establish their regional headquarters (RHQ) in the Eastern Province, driven by the RHQ Program launched by MISA to attract foreign investors.

Held under the patronage of Eastern Province Governor Saud Abdulaziz, the Jubail Investment Forum 2025 aims to showcase investment opportunities in the province, strengthen public-private sector collaboration, and facilitate knowledge exchange.
