Since the launch of the Kingdom’s Vision in 2016, Saudi Arabia has witnessed an unprecedented historical transformation and remarkable growth that supports the goal of the Vision, which lies in building a prosperous and promising future, through achieving economic growth and improving the quality of life. The Kingdom’s transformation journey started — passing through three stations. The first station focused on changing the mental image, enhancing efficiency, and laying the foundations with the empowerment of the government, as it had a major role in policies and implementation. The Kingdom reaped many of the fruits of that station. The Kingdom is now at the second stop. It can maximize the impact of the Vision, and move to the third phase, which will focus on continuity and achieving sustainable results. Through the Vision, the Kingdom brought about more than 70 reforms for the private sector to ensure citizens benefit from a more open and prosperous economic future. The Vision 2030 is an engine for reform by embedding sustainability at its core. The Kingdom is keen to inculcate sustainable practices since the beginning of its journey. The Vision also established economic enablers to accelerate growth and stimulate promising sectors. The remarkable achievements that have been made over the past seven years were a stimulus for the Vision to provide more opportunities for citizens in the future.
