Russia will present innovations at the Forum in Saudi Arabia

On December 1, 2025, the Russian-Saudi Business Forum will be held in Riyadh, a key platform for the development of Russian-Saudi partnership in priority sectors of the economy, science, technology and investment. The event will be held as part of the 9th meeting of the joint intergovernmental Russian-Saudi commission on trade, economic, scientific and technical cooperation.

An exhibition exhibit will be presented at the Forum. The combined stand of the Roscongress Foundation's international platform Roscongress International and the Territory of Innovation platform will feature cutting-edge developments from domestic companies.

"The Roscongress International platform helps create additional opportunities to promote Russia's export potential abroad by representing Russian manufacturers at leading international venues. The presence of stands of Russian technology companies at the Russian-Saudi Business Forum allows companies from our countries to establish direct contacts and negotiate prospects for practice-oriented cooperation," said Alexandra Ogneva, Deputy Director and Head of the Directorate for International and Regional Cooperation at the Roscongress Foundation.

The participants will demonstrate specific cases and products of Russian technology companies, from solutions in the field of hybrid logistics and electric mobility to cybersecurity systems, fintech platforms for international settlements, and air and water purification technologies. The exhibition will cover a wide range of industries, from aerospace developments and industrial equipment to innovative construction solutions and digital platforms that ensure import substitution and technological sovereignty. This is not just a demonstration of achievements, but export-ready projects focused on cooperation with partners from Saudi Arabia and the countries of the region.

Hyper (Rusnano Group), NexTouch, Ferry Watt, Reinnolz, Ecothermics, Security JSC, Geoscan, Aerolife, Frame Factory – LSTK, and RealPay will take part in the exhibition.

"The Territory of Innovation platform has been bringing together high-tech projects and promising start-ups for more than seven years, creating conditions for demonstrating their potential and entering international markets. Among the participants of our ecosystem are projects such as Hyper and Aerolife, which consistently confirm the high level of Russian developments. Integration with Roscongress International gives this work a new impetus, expanding opportunities to promote Russian solutions abroad. The exhibition presented in Saudi Arabia is a vivid confirmation that domestic innovations are in demand and competitive," said Dmitry Markov, head of the Roscongress Foundation's Territory of Innovation platform.

Sistema PJSC, Sberbank PJSC and the Russian-Arab Business Council will also present their products and solutions.

The Russian side of the Forum is co-organized by the Roscongress Foundation, the Russian-Saudi and Russian-Arab Business Councils with the support of the Government of the Russian Federation and the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation. The forum will bring together representatives of government authorities, development institutions and leading companies from the two countries.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will become a guest country at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum in 2026.
