Welcome to the Saudi Pavilion at BIO 2025

"Saudi Arabia stands at the forefront of a global biotech shift – not as a future player, but as an active partner shaping what comes next. This pavilion marks our first national presence at BIO, and the largest healthcare and life sciences delegation our country has ever sent abroad. We invite you to see first-hand what we are building – and what we are already delivering.

Saudi Arabia is undergoing a historic transformation, guided by Vision 2030. We are creating thousands of high-skilled jobs, accelerating discovery through translational research, and bringing advanced therapies to patients faster than ever before. Here at the Pavilion, you’ll meet leaders driving this change – from government and regulators, to hospitals, research centers, investors, and biomanufacturing pioneers. Together, they represent a system working in unison: fast, connected, and open to the world.

We are streamlining regulatory approvals with internationally aligned pathways. Our regulator is among the few globally recognized at the highest maturity level by the World Health Organization. Today, clinical trials in Saudi Arabia benefit from 120-day approval timelines and digital integration across national health data platforms. From the largest virtual hospital on the planet to platforms like nphies and Seha, data and real-world evidence are powering every step of our innovation pipeline.

We’re backing talent – through scholarships, biotech-focused education reform, and global attraction programs like the Premium Residency initiative. And we’re scaling what others imagine: from biomanufacturing at Lifera, to the world’s largest virtual hospital, to purpose-built zones that connect research, industry, and innovation.

Whether you are a startup founder, an individual researcher, a multinational executive, or a global investor – this is your invitation.

Welcome to the future of biotech. Welcome to Saudi Arabia.
