On December 26th, 2022, the “Saudi Japan Investment Forum 2022” was held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and our CEO Kiritani took the podium.

As one of the sessions of this business forum, LocationMind Co., Ltd. (hereafter, LocationMind) and Olayan Saudi Holding Company (hereafter, OSHCO), a Saudi Arabian conglomerate, will conduct business development in the Middle East and North Africa region. An MoU signing ceremony was held for the purpose of establishing a joint venture company.

In addition, Kiritani took the podium in the "Innovation for the future" field in the panel discussion by field and gave a presentation and question and answer session on LocationMind's innovation.

This “Japan-Saudi Vision 2030 Business Forum” has been held continuously in Japan and Saudi Arabia since the “Japan-Saudi Vision 2030” was established in 2017 as a compass for economic cooperation between Japan and Saudi Arabia. It has been.

This time, since the conclusion of the MoU between LocationMind and OSHCO, attracted the attention of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan as a result of economic cooperation between Japan and Saudi Arabia. We are happy that LocationMind was nominated to speak at this investment forum. LocationMind will continue to work with OSHCO to develop business in the Middle East and North Africa.

Regarding the conclusion of the MoU with OSHCO and the business environment survey in Saudi Arabia, we received a great deal of support from the Japan Cooperation Center for the Middle East (JCCME). We would like to take this moment to say thank you.
