RIYADH – Abdullah Al Dubaiki, Assistant Undersecretary for Investment, said Saudi Arabia has exceeded its Vision 2030 targets for attracting multinational regional headquarters, with more than 700 global companies currently based in the Kingdom.
Speaking at a dialogue session at the 2nd Education and Training Investment Forum in Riyadh, Al Dubaiki said the Regional Headquarters Program has exceeded the original target of 500 companies under Vision 2030.
He also highlighted the strong momentum of foreign investment in Saudi Arabia, noting that the Kingdom has issued approximately 60,000 investment licenses to date.
“These licenses reflect the presence of tens of thousands of foreign-invested companies operating in a wide range of sectors,” Al Dubaiki said.
He added that the figures demonstrate Saudi Arabia’s growing attractiveness as a regional business hub and reflect continued progress in creating a competitive and investor-friendly environment in line with the Kingdom’s long-term economic transformation goals.
