Saudi Arabia is undergoing an extraordinary transformation, driven by a bold vision of the future. In preparation for the 2030 World Expo, the country is pursuing innovative projects that are unique in the world, where culture, technology and sustainability converge.
Qiddiya City, an “entertainment city” on the outskirts of Riyadh, stands as the jewel of this transformation, with attractions in the fields of culture, sports, leisure and tourism. Water parks, theme parks, state-of-the-art sports facilities, hotels and many other facilities form part of it.
The Opera House, the Jeddah Tower and the Museum District, on the other hand, are magnificently rooted in the city of Jeddah and, as iconic structures, celebrate the country’s rich cultural heritage.
On the other hand, the Marine Life Institute, the futuristic Mukaad The Cube project or the temple dedicated to health at the Amaala Resort testify to the country’s commitment to sustainability and wellbeing. These are projects that not only highlight natural beauty, but also promote environmentally friendly practices.
The 2030 World Expo will undoubtedly be the perfect setting to ceremoniously present all these achievements to the world. A stage for innovation and emerging technologies, a global platform for knowledge sharing and international collaboration.
NEOM, a project of projects, a city of cities, a set of futuristic proposals on the shores of the Red Sea, redefines the boundaries of connectivity and sustainability. With all these initiatives, Saudi Arabia promises a more inclusive, sustainable and exciting future. The 2030 World Expo will be the culmination of this journey.
