Saudi Arabia’s gigaprojects – Editor’s Letter: A fresh perspective – Construction Week Online

As we step into the summer months, we are excited to bring to you our July issue. Another collection of features, interviews, site visits, analysis, and special reports brings us even closer to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and its exponentially growing construction and real estate sector – all thanks to its planned and ongoing pipeline of mega and gigaprojects.

Every time a new contract is awarded or a new project is launched in the kingdom, I’m amazed by how these developments and initiatives combine to drive the ambitions of the nation’s Vision 2030. As the construction sector plays a catalyst in the socio-economic development and transformation of the kingdom, the nation continues to keep its heritage and culture at the core of this transformation.

As Saudi Arabia looks ahead, so do we, this time with a specific emphasis on what connects the kingdom’s history to its megadevelopments.
