Saudi Arabia’s Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute has announced the program and speaker lineup for its flagship FII9 Conference, scheduled for October 27–30, 2025, at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Centre (KAICC) in Riyadh.
Held under the theme “The Key to Prosperity: Unlocking New Frontiers of Growth,” the event will convene more than 15 heads of state, global leaders, change makers and visionary investors.
The focus will be on addressing the paradoxes shaping the future, including progress versus consequences, innovation versus constraints, and fragmentation versus connectivity.

With over 600 speakers participating in more than 230 sessions, FII9 reaffirms its role as a global platform for investment, ideas and impact.
The conference will open with Yasir Al-Rumayyan, Governor of the Public Investment Fund (PIF) and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of FII Institute, presenting the 4th FII PRIORITY Compass.
The survey collects insights from tens of thousands of people across 32 countries, representing 66 per cent of the world’s population, to guide leaders toward practical, citizen-driven solutions.
Richard Attias, Chairman of the Executive Committee and Acting CEO of FII Institute, said:

- Can shared economic interests bridge divides or deepen fractures?
- How should trade rules evolve to protect security while preserving global coherence?
