Saudi Industry Forum 2026 Opens in Jeddah

The second edition of the Saudi Industry Forum 2026 will take place from 14 to 16 September 2026 at the Jeddah Superdome on Al-Madinah Al-Munawarah Road, near مطار الملك عبدالعزيز الدولي in Jeddah. The forum is held under the patronage of the Governor of Makkah Region, Prince Khalid bin Faisal bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.

Organized by the Federation of Saudi Chambers through its National Industrial Committee, in cooperation with the Jeddah Chamber and in strategic partnership with the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, the event carries the theme “Innovation for Sustainability.” It aims to deepen cooperation between the public and private sectors and to attract greater investment into industrial development.

The programme is built around six main tracks: food and pharmaceutical manufacturing; detailed manufacturing and innovative production technologies; entrepreneurship and innovation; logistics; renewable energy and sustainability; and advanced transformative industries. Organizers expect more than 200 exhibitors and participants, over 80 speakers, and more than 30 panel sessions and workshops.

More than 20,000 visitors are anticipated, including ministers, government officials, investors, CEOs, researchers, academics, entrepreneurs, and representatives of chambers of commerce and industry. Discussions will cover digital transformation, workforce development, supply chains, and building an integrated industrial base in strategic sectors such as automotive, food, and pharmaceuticals.

For the community, the forum highlights growth and investment opportunities in national industries, supports the localization of emerging technologies, and works to improve the regulatory and financing environment for the sector — all in line with the economic diversification goals of رؤية السعودية 2030. Entry to the forum at the Jeddah Superdome is free of charge.
