On October 28 and 29, sessions will cover the impact of AI and robotics on productivity, wealth creation amid inequality, the geopolitical effects of resource scarcity, demographic shifts shaping future workforces, and strategies to balance economic growth with environmental sustainability.

The event will conclude on October 30 with Investment Day, dedicated to high-impact deal-making, networking, and showcasing next-generation technologies. Additional workshops and networking programs will be announced later.

FII9 is expected to gather more than 7,500 participants and 600 speakers across 250 interactive sessions, reinforcing Riyadh’s role as a global hub for investment dialogue and strategy.
