Tahaluf

👏Some partnerships define an event. Others define a vision👏 This week, I had the honour of signing an agreement with Mohammad Albuty, CEO of the NHC, marking their return as a strategic partner for Cityscape Global 2025. When we first brought Cityscape Global to Saudi Arabia, we knew it would become more than just a global stage for real estate. It would become a mirror to the Kingdom’s ambition and a catalyst for the people and projects shaping its future. NHC’s role in that story has been pivotal. Their presence last year set a new standard for what public and private collaboration can achieve, and this year, their vision is even greater. As Mr Albuty shared: “We are proud to return in 2025 with even greater ambition, bringing 100,000 new housing units to the market and building not just homes, but thriving, sustainable communities.” For us at Tahaluf, partnerships like this go beyond contracts: ✅They are commitments to building legacies. ✅They allow for strategic and unique activities to happen at the event, that benefit the buyers and visitors, and ✅Together with NHC, they allow us to continue to shape a platform that does not just showcase real estate, but showcases the future being built right here in the Kingdom. Huge congratulations go to the NHC team and the Tahaluf team, particularly Rachel Sturgess, Nawaz Ali and Annie Jeffcoat for their hard work in creating this strategic partnership for the world's largest property event.

Last week, as part of our National Day celebrations, our colleagues visited King Abdullah University Hospital (KAUH) to distribute toys and spread some joy to children receiving care.   We had the pleasure of meeting the Chair of the Paediatric Department and her team, who expressed heartfelt appreciation for the contribution by our Tahaluf family. This initiative was made possible thanks to our colleagues who came together to organise a bake sale and support the cause.   Tahaluf looks forward to contributing to more extremely worthwhile initiatives like this in the years ahead.

🚀 Proud moment for Tahaluf! We’ve just been named MICE Company of the Year at the Gulf Business Awards — judged by an independent panel of experts across multiple industries. That matters. And here’s why 👇 I’ll say something a little controversial… We’ve decided we will no longer enter awards judged only by people inside our own industry. Why? Because while industry peers know the craft inside-out, they also know each other — friendships, rivalries, suppliers, former employees, future employers. Even with the best intentions, that web of connections makes it hard to keep things 100% impartial. Case in point: we recently withdrew from a major regional awards ceremony in Riyadh once Tahaluf was asked to help organise it. It just wouldn’t have felt fair to the other nominees. So from now on, we’ll put ourselves to the test on a bigger stage — multi-industry awards where the competition is wider, the judging is broader, and the recognition is truly independent. This win is not just for Tahaluf — it’s for every member of our team who has worked relentlessly since our launch just four years ago to deliver dozens of award-winning events. 🏆 Huge congratulations to everyone at Tahaluf for this superb recognition. Onwards and upwards.

Tahaluf was proud to pick up MICE Provider of the Year (Editor’s Choice) at last night’s Gulf Business Awards - reinforcing our commitment to being this region’s leading b2b events company.     We were one of two Saudi companies to win, as Salam - the leading telecommunication provider - won Digital Transformation Company of the Year too.   Winning these Gulf Business Awards helps Saudi companies celebrate talent and leadership - and shows just how much innovation and desire to create a positive and lasting economic impact exists across this dynamic region.   So congratulations to Team Tahaluf, Salam and everyone else contributing to Saudi Arabia’s incredible momentum! 💚   In the photo: Abdullah Mohammad Khorami, Chief Business Officer of Salam, and Mike Champion, Chief Executive Officer of Tahaluf, accepting the awards.

Saudi National Day is a moment to reflect on the Kingdom’s remarkable journey and the people shaping its future. It is a day to honour the vision, ambition, and unity that continue to drive progress across Saudi Arabia.   At Tahaluf we make Saudi Arabia the true centre of our story. We have launched home grown b2b event brands like LEAP, which is now the world’s most attended tech event and DeepFest - and we look forward to launching more in 2026. We are proud too that in just three years Tahaluf’s live b2b events have delivered a $17.6bn economic impact to Saudi Arabia.   Aligning with Vision 2030’s goal to increase women's workforce participation and leadership roles within the Kingdom, we can confirm over half of Tahaluf’s senior leadership team are female. We don’t just believe in workforce diversity, we live it everyday.   We believe in nurturing Saudi talent too. Over the past two years, 25 young Saudi graduates have begun their careers with us through training programmes, and we look forward to being responsible for their careers, growing their potential and ensuring each Tahaluf graduate becomes the best they can be.    So on this day, we celebrate the spirit of progress and pride that defines Saudi Arabia and inspires us all. ✨   Happy 95th Saudi National Day.

Yesterday we concluded Money20/20 Middle East - the world’s leading fintech event which made its regional debut in Saudi Arabia. Marking this historic milestone, the event was opened by H.E. Mohammed Al-Jadaan, Saudi Arabia’s Minister of Finance and Chairman of the Financial Sector Development Program Committee. Bringing together over 38,500 attendees, 450 global and regional fintech brands, more than 1,000+ investors, and 157 startups and scaleups, Money20/20 Middle East united regulators, innovators, and industry leaders to ‘make’ the future of finance. The event also hosted 2,200+ investor-startup meetings and saw deals worth billions announced at the show. We extend our sincerest gratitude to everyone who has helped build this brand to what it is and our team’s efforts in making Money20/20 Middle East the largest fintech event in the region. Thank you!

“Riyadh is the capital of capital.” That’s how Annabelle Mander, Executive Vice President at Tahaluf, put it on stage, and the numbers backed her up. 1,051 investors, representing $11.3 trillion in AUM, made their way to Money20/20 Middle East this year to look for what’s next, to meet the startups shaping the future and to find ideas worth betting on. This is the Middle East’s fintech moment. And it’s only just beginning. #Money2020MiddleEast
