EVENT OVERVIEW

Saudi Arabia's transformative journey under the "Saudi Vision 2030" reflects a strong commitment to building a digitally advanced, secure, and resilient ecosystem. As the Kingdom undergoes rapid digital transformation across its sectors, cybersecurity has emerged as a top priority to protect critical infrastructure, safeguard data, and enhance trust in its digital economy. Key organizations such as the National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA), Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA), and the Digital Government Authority (DGA) play pivotal roles in fortifying Saudi Arabia's cybersecurity landscape.

The Cyber Next Summit & Awards 2025 comes at a crucial juncture in Saudi Arabia's ambitious digital transformation journey. With the cybersecurity market in the Kingdom projected to grow from $3.5 billion in 2023 to $5.9 billion by 2028, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.8% , Saudi Arabia is positioning itself as a leader in cybersecurity resilience. The government has allocated an impressive $2.5 billion investment toward implementing its National Cybersecurity Strategy and achieving Maturity Level 5, signifying the highest standards of enterprise-level cybersecurity readiness and resilience.

Scheduled to take place in Al Khobar in 24 - 25 June 2025, the Cyber Next Summit & Awards 2025 serves as a vital platform to bring together industry leaders, policymakers, and cybersecurity experts from across the region and beyond. Attendees will explore Saudi Arabia's advancements in cybersecurity, discuss cutting-edge defense strategies, and collaborate on building a robust and secure digital future.

Join us at Cyber Next Summit & Awards 2025 in Al Khobar to shape the Kingdom’s cybersecurity narrative and drive innovation toward a safer, smarter digital era.
