Earlier this month, Lili.ai was invited to take part in the French‑Saudi Business Forum in Riyadh, a landmark event that brought together more than 800 senior leaders from both countries. This gathering offered a unique perspective on how rapidly the French‑Saudi economic partnership is evolving under the ambitions of Saudi Vision 2030.
Over three days, the Forum hosted high‑level dialogues, the signing of new Memoranda of Understanding, and sector‑focused workshops covering infrastructure, mobility, energy, finance, hospitality, and technology. Participation in these discussions provided valuable insight into the expectations of key Saudi stakeholders involved in some of the world’s most ambitious projects.
More than 100 French companies were represented across major Vision 2030 initiatives, including Expo 2030 Riyadh and the FIFA World Cup 2034. For Lili.ai, which focuses on helping large projects stay on time and on budget through AI‑powered project intelligence, this environment is highly relevant: megaprojects generate massive complexity, and the ability to detect risks early and enable informed decision‑making is becoming a strategic differentiator.
Lili.ai’s presence at the Forum was dedicated to building the right foundations:
deepening understanding of the Saudi project ecosystem,
exploring where its technology can bring concrete value,
and connecting with stakeholders who are shaping the delivery of these flagship programs.
This edition of the French‑Saudi Business Forum marks an important step in accelerating bilateral opportunities. Being invited to such a gathering reinforces Lili.ai’s commitment to supporting the successful delivery of large‑scale projects worldwide, by turning project complexity into actionable insight.
