In Saudi Arabia, significant investments (about $1.5 to $2.0 trillion by 2030) are being made not only to wean its economy from oil by increasing non-oil revenues, such as renewable energy, tourism and manufacturing, but also to provide enormous opportunities for the young and ambitious Saudi youth (69% of the population under 35).
With investment totaling billions of dollars, the kingdom is embarking on a journey to diversify its economy away from oil, create jobs, and boost its international standing as a leading hub for trade and tourism.
