The Kingdom’s Vision 2030 presents an ambitious and transformative 
roadmap  leveraging the Kingdom’s strengths. It has built a foundation 
to drive unprecedented reforms in the public sector’s operating model, 
the economy, and society as a whole. This has laid the foundation for 
future success. 
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is proceeding with confident and steady steps 
on its path to development at all economic and social levels, thus contributing 
to achieving the goals of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030. Giga‏ projects - such as 
NEOM city (The Line), the Red Sea, and Saudi Green Initiative - will help 
through the demand it will create for goods and services. This will provide an 
opportunity to advance the Kingdom’s industry, by building local manufacturing 
capabilities, and attracting modern industrial technologies. 
Proceeding from the main pillars of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 (a vibrant socie-
ty, a thriving economy, and an ambitious nation), it has become important to 
develop theNational Industrial Strategy.
