It was an absolute honour to moderate today’s ministerial webinar, hosted by the Australia-Saudi Business Council and Forum (ASBC&F)—a pivotal discussion aimed at strengthening bilateral trade and collaboration in mining, industry, and resources.
The webinar showcased the deepening ties between Australia and Saudi Arabia, particularly following the Future Minerals Forum (FMF2025)—which saw over 300 Australian companies actively engaged. A major milestone was also reached with the first-ever Australia Country Stand at FMF, reinforcing Australia’s commitment to innovation and investment in the region.
A special thanks to Their Excellencies and Minister King for their invaluable insights, as well as to the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, the Australian Government, and all participants who contributed to this highly impactful dialogue.
As the Australia-Saudi partnership continues to grow, ASBC&F is working on an exciting new initiative to further elevate trade and investment opportunities between our nations. Stay tuned for more updates—we look forward to unveiling what’s next in this dynamic and evolving collaboration!
