The Saudi side of the Committee was chaired by H.E. Minister of Finance, Mohammed Bin Al-Jadaan, while the German side was chaired by Minister of Economic Affairs and Energy Peter Altmaier.
The Forum represented a perfect meeting opportunity for senior government officials and business owners and offered a channel of direct engagement between economic decision makers of both countries. More than 300 persons participated in a number of discussion panels and workshops to highlight the current and future economic relations between Germany and Saudi Arabia, as well as the challenges and potentials thereof. The Forum included five main sessions to discuss mutual cooperation in the fields of manufacturing, applications of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, sustainable energy, infrastructure, logistics, tourism and entertainment.
