Prince Khalid presented Abdullah Al-Rabeeah, Executive Vice President, Sabic Shared Services, an honorary plaque in recognition of Sabic’s support to the exhibition (photo).

The event also aims to explore promising investment opportunities and take advantage of local capacities and capabilities and build a long-term strategic relationship between the private sector and domestic manufacturers.

The exhibition further aims at informing the private sector on the Armed Forces’ requirements of materials that can be manufactured locally.

It will seek to promote Saudization programs, establish channels of communication for planning and follow-up between the Armed Forces on one hand, and manufacturing factories, local companies, and research organizations on the other.

More than 15,000 supply and investment opportunities are being offered to local manufacturers. These include the manufacturing and supply of equipment, parts and tools required by the various sectors of the Ministry of Defense.
