It s a very good opportunity for us to exhibit at this event. Our products that are made in Italy are now showcased on an international platform.

Kingdom of Saudi Arabia s Vision 2030 With the launch of Vision 2030, by Prince Mohammad bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, Deputy Crown Prince and Chairman of the Council of Economic and Development Affairs, potential is now well defined and backed by the country s visionary leaders. The Vision 2030 document reveals a wellthought-out strategy that takes into consideration Saudi Arabia s strengths and its capabilities. The focus on specific sectors is deliberate and evidently backed by a solid socio-economic rationale. The Deputy Crown Prince Mohammad identified the automotive industry as one of the favoured areas for support, all of which the Kingdom is either already a major consumer of or regionally well-placed to be a hub for re-export. The future is now.
