King Khalid International Airport
King Khalid International Airport is a major international airport located in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It opened in 1983 and was named after King Khalid bin Abdulaziz Al Saud. The airport was designed to handle the growing air traffic of the capital and is known for its distinctive architecture, including mosque terminals with large domes.
Riyadh Region
The Riyadh Region is the historical heartland of modern Saudi Arabia, serving as the capital district and home to the country’s founding Dir’iyah oasis. It was from Dir’iyah that the First Saudi State was established in the 18th century, cementing the region’s central political and cultural role. Today, the region is a vast and rapidly developing area, where ancient mud-brick ruins stand in contrast to the modern skyline of the capital city, Riyadh.
Future Investment Initiative
The Future Investment Initiative (FII) is an annual global investment forum held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, often referred to as “Davos in the Desert.” It was launched in 2017 as a key part of the nation’s Vision 2030 plan to diversify its economy away from oil. The event brings together international business leaders, investors, and policymakers to discuss global economic trends and investment opportunities.
