Riyadh: The fifth edition of the Real Estate Future Forum 2026 will kick off tomorrow in Riyadh under the patronage of Minister of Municipalities and Housing and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Real Estate General Authority Majed Al-Hogail. Held under the theme 'Expanding Horizons: Real Estate Thriving,' the forum comes amid growing local and international interest, with wide participation from decision-makers, experts, and investors representing more than 140 countries, alongside an elite group of 300 speakers from government and executive leadership, as well as specialists from the public and private sectors. A number of influential local and international figures will also take part, reflecting the advanced position the Saudi real estate sector has come to occupy globally.
According to Saudi Press Agency, the forum will feature more than 40 dialogue sessions, in addition to several closed meetings, addressing the future of urban planning and residential community design, health, environmental and social sustainability, and the role of real estate technologies in city development and green building. These discussions will include the participation of leading economists, investors, and real estate ecosystem experts from within the Kingdom and abroad.
The forum coincides with the entry into force of the updated Law of Real Estate Ownership by Non-Saudis, which opens organized pathways for foreign investment, enhances the attractiveness of the Saudi real estate market, and supports its sustainable growth, at a time when the Kingdom is witnessing unprecedented development momentum across its regions.
The event will be accompanied by a specialized real estate exhibition featuring major local and international companies and entities. The exhibition will showcase the latest real estate technologies, artificial intelligence applications, sustainable building materials, innovative development models, as well as diverse financing and investment solutions. It will also serve as a platform for signing a number of agreements and memoranda of understanding among participating entities.
