NEOM's Workforce to Reach 200,000 by 2025: A Milestone in Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 Initiative

The Saudi Arabian giga-project NEOM is expected to have a workforce of over 200,000 by 2025, marking a 43% increase from the current level.
This significant labor increase is a crucial milestone in the Vision 2030 initiative and highlights NEOM's role in transforming the Saudi economy.

The project, which is currently under construction in northwest Saudi Arabia, has attracted over 100 leading construction companies for a two-day industry forum.

NEOM's CEO, Nadhmi Al-Nasr, addressed the event, emphasizing the vast opportunities available during the project's busiest development phase and the commitment to collaborating with renowned contractors to achieve NEOM's vision.

A construction industry event in NEOM, Saudi Arabia, provided participants with firsthand tours of ongoing projects and opportunities for one-on-one meetings with contractors.

International and local firms attended, showcasing their services and capabilities for potential business prospects.

The event highlighted current construction progress and future developments, signifying NEOM's transition into a new phase of extensive project portfolio execution.

The need for top-tier construction expertise was emphasized to deliver ambitious development projects.

NEOM, a futuristic city in Saudi Arabia, is undergoing ambitious construction projects, including a 170-km-long city called The Line, which is being built in modular phases with the first phase set to open in 2030.

Innovation is crucial in the industry as traditional construction methods are insufficient for the city's large-scale and complex projects.

Progress is being made on key projects such as The Line, The Spine, Oxagon, Trojena, and an international airport.
