Faiyad Peterson, Country Director - KSA, will join other industry experts at Construction Week Leaders summit in Riyadh, providing insights into the current landscape of construction in the Kingdom.

He will join the panel discussion “Leisure & Entertainment Boom: Building for Expo 2035, FIFA 2034, and Beyond”, addressing whether Saudi Arabia needs to consider more than mega and gigaprojects for lasting tourism growth. The panel will further explore how to build faster without compromising safety and discuss how AI crowd-flow modelling can accelerate project timelines.

The event will also address future project challenges and their impact on tourism and infrastructure, urban mobility, smart city solutions, gender diversity in construction, and workforce development strategies.
