The Future of Aviation Conference in its third edition, which is held from May 20 to May 22, 2024, in Riyadh under the slogan “Enhancing the Level of Global Connectivity,” has offered investment opportunities worth more than $100 billion.

The conference aims to transform the Kingdom into a leading logistics center in the Middle East, and to achieve the goals of the National Aviation Strategy by providing an attractive investment environment in this vital and important sector.

The conference will highlight the projects and incentives provided by the Kingdom to attract investment in the Saudi aviation sector, which has witnessed remarkable prosperity and development over the past few years, through airports, airlines, ground services, air freight, and logistics services.
