Riyadh - Sharikat Mubasher: The Sports Investment Forum (SIF), a premier platform for strategic dialogue, innovation, and investment in the Saudi sports sector, successfully concluded strategic agreements with major financial funds to launch sports investment funds worth over SAR 700 million, according to SIF CEO Ibrahim Al-Bakri

These agreements represent a significant milestone in facilitating investment opportunities in the sports sector, Al-Bakri stated in an interview with Asharq Business KSA.

He emphasized the SIF’s role in attracting foreign investors to this dynamic sector by organizing global tours to introduce available investment opportunities to interested investors worldwide.

The SIF 2026 takes place in Riyadh from 20 to 22 April, gathering a global lineup of dignitaries, CEOs, investors, and decision-makers. It underscores Saudi Arabia’s accelerating push to position sports as a key investment sector, supported by regulatory reforms, infrastructure development, and government-backed initiatives aligned with Saudi Vision 2030.

The forum featured keynote sessions, agreement signings, and an investment exhibition, bringing together local and international players. A dedicated business club is also facilitating meetings between investors and corporate leaders to accelerate partnerships.
