Richard Attias Engages Media Ahead Of The 8th FII Institute Conference In Riyadh

Richard Attias, CEO and board member of the Future Investment Initiative Institute (FII Institute), engaged with international media in New York during the United Nations General Assembly. He emphasised the significance of the institute's 8th annual conference. This event will be held under the patronage of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud from October 29 to 31 at Riyadh's King Abdulaziz International Conference Center.

Attias shared insights with the Saudi Press Agency, stating, "We invited all international media outlets to take a closer look and learn more about the prepared program, speakers, and initiatives. We also explained what FII will offer in its 8th edition in Riyadh, based on indicators collected through a global survey of people's priorities around the world."

The upcoming FII conference is set to attract significant media attention. Approximately 450 international media outlets have registered, with over 40 media networks partnering for coverage. Attias anticipates engaging dialogues at this event, which will feature more than 520 confirmed speakers, including global CEOs.

In a notable first for FII, two summits will precede the main conference on October 28 in Riyadh. These include a mini-summit focused on Africa and another dedicated to women's empowerment. The latter will be chaired by Princess Reema bint Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz, Saudi Arabia's ambassador to the United States.

The FII Institute aims to address pressing global issues through these summits. The Africa-focused mini-summit will explore economic opportunities and challenges on the continent. Meanwhile, the women's empowerment summit seeks to advance gender equality discussions and initiatives worldwide.

This year's conference is designed to foster meaningful conversations among leaders from various sectors. By bringing together diverse voices, FII hopes to generate actionable insights that can drive positive change globally.

The event's agenda reflects a commitment to addressing contemporary challenges and opportunities. Through collaborative efforts and dialogue, participants aim to identify solutions that align with global priorities identified in recent surveys.

As preparations continue for this significant gathering in Riyadh, anticipation builds for impactful discussions that could shape future investment strategies and policies worldwide.
