UK-Saudi Investment & Partnership Summit 2026

The Saudi British Joint Business Council (SBJBC) is delighted to announce the UK-Saudi Investment & Partnership Summit 2026, set to take place on 8 June at Banqueting House in London.

The UK-Saudi Investment & Partnership Summit returns in 2026, convening over 350 senior delegates from government, investment, and industry to explore the next chapter of economic collaboration between the United Kingdom and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Bringing together ministers, policymakers, investors, family offices, and global business leaders, the Summit provides a high-level platform to examine the opportunities shaping the UK-Saudi economic corridor. From strategic investment and infrastructure development to emerging sectors such as artificial intelligence, culture, and the creative economy, the programme will highlight the areas driving growth and partnership between both nations.

Delegates will benefit from exclusive networking opportunities, high-level ministerial discussions, and expert-led panels, designed to foster knowledge exchange, unlock new investment opportunities, and strengthen long-term commercial partnerships.

More than a conference, the Summit offers a rare opportunity to engage directly with key decision-makers, gain firsthand insight into evolving regulatory and market landscapes, and position organisations at the forefront of one of the world’s most dynamic bilateral investment relationships.

Driving the Future of UK-Saudi Partnership

Over the past five editions, the Saudi British Joint Business Council (SBJBC) has hosted the largest ministerial-led Saudi business delegations to the United Kingdom, establishing the Summit as a leading platform for UK–Saudi commercial engagement.

In 2026, the Summit will once again convene senior leaders from government, investment, and industry to explore the opportunities emerging from Saudi Arabia’s economic transformation and the UK’s strengths across finance, infrastructure, and innovation.

This year’s programme is being developed in close collaboration with government stakeholders and strategic partners, with a clear focus on capital deployment, project delivery, and long-term institutional partnership.

Together with our partners, the Summit will provide a focused platform for advancing investment flows, strengthening bilateral relationships, and enabling practical collaboration across priority sectors.

Agenda

Final agenda to be announced

The 2026 Summit programme is currently being developed in close collaboration with government stakeholders, strategic partners, and industry leaders across both the United Kingdom and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Building on previous editions, this year’s Summit will focus on the evolving UK–Saudi economic relationship, with a clear emphasis on investment execution, institutional collaboration, and the delivery of long-term growth.

Key themes of the day will include:

  • Private Capital & Cross-Border Investment
    Exploring how institutional investors, private capital platforms, and financial institutions are structuring and deploying capital across the UK–Saudi corridor, with a focus on private markets, strategic partnerships, and high-growth sectors.

  • Insurance, Pensions & Long-Term Capital
    Examining the role of insurance and pension systems in strengthening financial resilience, expanding long-term savings, and mobilising institutional capital to support infrastructure, investment, and economic diversification.

  • Artificial Intelligence, Skills & Workforce Transformation
    Assessing how AI and emerging technologies are reshaping education, workforce development, and enterprise capability, and how governments and businesses can collaborate to build agile, future-ready labour markets.

  • Sustainable Infrastructure & Next-Generation Cities
    Focusing on the delivery of large-scale urban developments and giga-projects, and how sustainability, technology, and heritage are being integrated into the planning and execution of future cities.

The Summit is designed to convene senior decision-makers and enable tangible outcomes — from investment partnerships and capital allocation to cross-sector collaboration and the delivery of strategic projects across both markets.
