Vision 2030 and opportunities for foreign investors
Vision 2030 is Saudi Arabia's long-term plan to diversify the economy away from oil, and it has directly reshaped how open the Kingdom is to foreign investment, including allowing 100% foreign ownership in most sectors.
Sectors highlighted under this plan, such as tourism, entertainment, logistics, manufacturing, and technology, have seen the most regulatory movement and the clearest new opportunities for foreign entrants.
For a foreign company, this generally translates into faster licensing processes, fewer local ownership requirements than in the past, and a genuine push from the government to bring in outside expertise and capital.
