What's the significance of Saudi Arabia winning the bid to host Expo 2030 in Riyadh? It aligns with the Kingdom's Vision 2030 and its international brand building and job creation objectives. Economic diversification and job creation is at the heart of Vision 2030. Tourism is an integral part of that vision with an initial target of 100 million visitors a year revised to 150 million visitors - 50% international and 50% domestic - with a contribution of 10% of GDP. "Tourism is the new oil" How do they do that? A playbook of building: - world class destinations and experiences in the country - - a world class airline and aviation hub - global mass marketing - hosting major global events with high footfall and eyeballs It's a playbook that Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Qatar have already deployed well, hosting major events from the World Cup to the Expo, building global airlines and mega airports and sponsoring sports teams around the world. Saudi now has: - Formula One in Jeddah (Bahrain, Abu Dhabi and Qatar are also on the calendar) - Expo 2030 (Expo 2020 in Dubai brought 24 million visits and $42 billion in economic benefits) - World Cup 2034 (Qatar hosted it in 2022) - a new airline - Riyadh Air | طيران الرياض - plans to upgrade their airports - an estimated 300+ global sports sponsorships Expect to see "Visit Saudi" every time you watch a sport and on billboards around the world. I've spent half of the last decade in the Middle East, working on large, ambitious projects in Saudi Arabia and have witnessed firsthand the most unbelievable transformation in its society and economy. The Kingdom had one of the most impressive pavilions at Expo 2020 in Dubai (photo of mine below) and it was very clear that reshaping the global image and narrative of Saudi Arabia was the central objective and visible in every single detail of the pavilion. An impressive movie featuring John Travolta had a young Saudi woman telling him that she was going to tell him a story he had never heard before and went on to drive a sports car (huge symbolism) and show him how the Kingdom was transforming. The transformation of Saudi Arabia is a massive opportunity for Saudi women and men and for global businesses and visitors. Yalla Riyadh! #saudiarabia #saudiexpo2030 #expo2030

Qatar is increasingly becoming a popular destination for luxury travel, cultural experiences, and international events, which was evident in receiving over half a million visitors in December and around 7 lakh visitors in January. Doha's numerous events, including Expo Doha 2023, the AFC Asian Cup, and the World Aquatics Championships, are drawing visitors from every corner of the globe. Additionally, the Qatar International Food Festival, Web Summit, and Qatar International Rally are all highly sought-after events that attract visitors with their unique offerings. Furthermore, as someone who is proud of being part of this beautiful country, I believe Qatar's ambitious vision and strategic investments position it as a game changer in the future world. With initiatives like the Qatar National Vision 2030, which aims to transform the country into a knowledge-based economy and host major international events, Qatar is rapidly establishing itself as a global leader in innovation and development. The country's commitment to sustainability, technology, and infrastructure development sets a precedent for others to follow. I really am hopeful that as Qatar continues to showcase its capabilities on the world stage, it is poised to influence and shape the trajectory of various industries, making it a pivotal player in shaping the future landscape of the world. #qatar #middleeast #tourism

Quality, HSSE, & Compliance Leader | Expert in Regulatory Standards & Logistics | Championing Excellence in Express Delivery Services
Riyadh Expo 2030 and Beyond With the inspiration of hosting the #Expo2030 in #Riyadh, increased consumer awareness in #Saudi, and fierce competition racing the deliveries by the minute (15-30 minutes), we expect very exciting times ahead! This event will revolutionize our logistics sector, offering faster and more efficient orders and shipment deliveries. Imagine ordering online and receiving your items in record time; that's the progress we're discussing. Both local and international shipments will benefit from this efficiency boost. But, with growth comes challenges. The increase in package volumes could lead to potential congestion and delays. #SaudiArabia is countering this with smart, tech-driven strategies. Investments in #AI, automated systems, and intelligent data analysis are underway to optimize everything from shipments/orders delivery to traffic management; the rest lies in the private sector to invest in the right direction. Expo 2030 is more than just a logistical challenge; it's a strategic move for economic growth. While hosting such large-scale events involves significant investment, the long-term benefits are invaluable. It's an opportunity to showcase our capabilities in managing mega/giga projects, attracting foreign investment, and boosting #tourism. The giant effect of this will be felt in our infrastructure development, too. Improvements for the Expo 2030 will serve far beyond the event, enhancing our country's overall economic landscape and attracting more business and investment opportunities. With the 2024 deadline for international corporates to move their regional offices to Riyadh (3 weeks from now), we're anticipating an influx of businesses and people, an exchange of expertise, and high expectations in #logistic services. This move aligns with our vision of becoming a regional hub, leveraging experiences from globally recognized logistic leaders. As we prepare for Expo 2030, it will also pave the way for a successful event and the possibility of hosting the FIFA World Cup in 2034. So, does hosting such events pay back quickly or cover the preparation expenses? Those events are costly and may "only sometimes" cover their preparation expenses directly; however, the long-term financial benefits can be significant. Saudi Arabia's eagerness to host these events is a strategic move. It's about building a legacy and infrastructure that will pay back in the coming years, not just balancing in the short term. #RiyadhExpo2030 #LogisticsInnovation #SaudiVision #FutureGrowth #FIFAWorldCup

In a historic win, Saudi Arabia secures the 2030 World Expo bid, aiming to redefine its global narrative and boost tourism. In a momentous achievement for Saudi Arabia, the oil-rich kingdom has been awarded the prestigious 2030 World Expo. The capital, Riyadh, emerged victorious with an impressive 119 votes, surpassing contenders Busan from South Korea and Rome, as announced by the Bureau International des Expositions in Paris on a momentous Tuesday. With South Korea securing 29 votes and Italy 17, Riyadh's resounding win signals a transformative era for the nation. The upcoming international fair, scheduled to take place from October 2030 to March 2031, holds significant promise for Saudi Arabia. Themed "The Era of Change: Together for a Foresighted Tomorrow," the Expo underscores the kingdom's commitment to shaping a progressive future. This marks the second occasion the Middle East will host the event, following Dubai's successful hosting of the pandemic-delayed Expo 2020. Saudi Arabia's ambitious plans include a $7.8 billion investment to stage the Expo, reflecting its dedication to presenting a world-class event. The nation's momentum extends beyond the Expo, with expectations high for it to secure the hosting rights for the 2034 FIFA World Cup, uncontested. Additionally, Saudi Arabia is set to host the 2029 Asian Winter Games in Neom, a groundbreaking $500 billion development in the north-west of the country. Riyadh's rise as a global event host represents a remarkable shift from its past, where the kingdom was traditionally closed to foreign tourists. However, with the introduction of tourist visas in 2019, as part of Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman's economic diversification plan, Saudi Arabia is rapidly becoming a sought-after destination. Witness the transformative journey at the 2030 World Expo in Riyadh! Stay tuned for updates and join us in shaping a Foresighted Tomorrow. #SaudiExpo2030 #GlobalAchievement #TourismTransformation #WorldExpo #SaudiArabia #TourismTransformation #GlobalEvent #2030WorldExpo #Riyadh #CulturalExchange #FIFA2034 #NeomDevelopment #AsianWinterGames
