In a major step towards deepening bilateral relations, the Australian Saudi Business Council and Forum (ASBC/F) hosted a landmark ministerial webinar featuring:
His Excellency Bandar Ibrahim AlKhorayef, Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
His Excellency Khalid Almudaifer, Vice Minister of Mining Affairs, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
The Hon. Madeleine King MP, Federal Minister for Resources and Minister for Northern Australia, Commonwealth of Australia
The webinar offered strategic insights into the growing opportunities across mining, industry, and resource sectors. As highlighted during the session, the Future Minerals Forum (FMF) continues to serve as a platform for collaboration, with over 300 Australian companies participating and Australia proudly launching its first-ever Country Stand at FMF 2025.
The Council extends its appreciation to all participating Ministers and government representatives whose leadership continues to shape Australia–Saudi cooperation. We also thank the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources and the Australian Government for their continued support.
This dialogue reflects ASBC/F’s broader efforts to build commercial bridges and advance bilateral trade. The Council looks forward to announcing further initiatives in the coming weeks that will strengthen joint innovation and investment outcomes.
