The conference features a packed agenda of insightful discussions, interactive workshops, and invaluable networking opportunities.

Joining Abdulrahman on the panel were Peter Van Der Merwe, Managing Director of Weber Shandwick Riyadh, and Ahmed Soudodi, Vice President of Product and Marketing for Kia Middle East and Africa. Together, they discussed the pivotal role of strategic communications in shaping Saudi Arabia’s rapid transformation and global image.

The session, featuring experts from communication and media, explored the factors driving Saudi Arabia’s rapid development and the pivotal role of strategic public relations in shaping the country’s global image.
