"Having worked on Saudi based events for the best part of 20 years, I have always found that Saudi Arabia has always been a vibrant market to do business in and even more so since the implementation of Saudi Vision 2030. The vision is accelerating economic diversification and, as a result, creating unparalleled opportunity for the private sector, both locally and globally. In particular, the Kingdom has placed sustainability at the top of the agenda, which has enabled international collaboration on key industries such as waste management in which an estimated $25Bn of contracts are expected to be awarded.

Building on the success of our previous events, including the PetroEnvironment Series, Circular 24 is set to connect key industries, individuals, and stakeholders to exchange knowledge, foster innovation and unlock business opportunities. I am very much looking forward to welcoming the global waste management community to Riyadh in 2024!"
