Saudi Arabia and the United States solidified economic ties with $270 billion in agreements signed at the Saudi-U.S. Business Forum on November 19, 2025, marking a milestone in cross-sector collaboration. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman emphasized Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 reforms during his address to U.S. business leaders in Washington, D.C., framing the deals as part of broader efforts to diversify the kingdom's economy.
The forum followed high-level discussions between Saudi officials and former U.S. President Donald Trump, underscoring enduring bilateral partnerships. Key sectors covered in the agreements include energy transition projects, advanced technology infrastructure, and joint ventures in tourism development.
Analysts note these investments align with growing U.S. interest in Middle Eastern economic stability ahead of 2026 global market forecasts. A White House spokesperson stated the partnerships 'reinforce shared goals for sustainable growth,' while Saudi delegates highlighted opportunities for U.S. firms in NEOM and other giga-projects.
