Looking for investors interested in investing in Saudi Arabia.

The region stands out for its potential at every stage. For acquisition, there’s a vast, untapped market with minimal competition—1.3 million firms. In terms of growth, the market offers significant room for expansion, with SME financing having tripled in recent years and clear mandates to boost SME contributions to GDP. The exit potential is even more compelling: in recent years, private businesses have seen a 251% average increase in value after listing, and the number of successful exits has doubled over the past five years, supported by initiatives to increase stock market listings and strategic acquirers.

Happy to chat more.
