The conference hosted CXOs, regulators, insurers, reinsurers, brokers, technology providers, and advisory firms, with strong representation from all major players operating within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Across two days of high-level discussions, the agenda focused on practical transformation, regulatory alignment, emerging technologies, and the future operating models of insurance.
The event featured expert keynote addresses, panel discussions, and curated networking sessions, enabling meaningful dialogue around real-world challenges and execution-led innovation rather than theoretical concepts.
