LEAP 2027
About the event
LEAP 2027 is Saudi Arabia’s flagship technology and innovation conference, held in Riyadh at the Riyadh Front Exhibition & Conference Center. The event brings together global founders, enterprise buyers, systems integrators, and public-sector leaders to discuss AI, cloud, cybersecurity, fintech, and digital government — themes central to Vision 2030 and the Kingdom’s diversification agenda.
For international companies evaluating Saudi market entry, LEAP is a practical venue to validate positioning, meet channel partners, and compare localization requirements before committing budget. Exhibitors span software, infrastructure, and govtech; visitors include C-suite sponsors, procurement teams, and innovation labs from across the GCC and wider MENA region.
Why LEAP matters for market entry
Technology adoption in Saudi Arabia is accelerating across banking, energy, healthcare, and smart-city programs. Attending LEAP helps you map buyer priorities, understand sovereign-cloud and data-residency conversations, and identify integrators who already hold government or enterprise references. Pair your visit with Motaded’s Technology sector overview and the Motaded Library guides on incorporation and investment rules.
Planning your visit
Confirm registration categories and meeting formats on the official LEAP website. Build a short target list of halls and partners, and allow travel time across a large campus. Before travel, review Company Incorporation Guide and Investment Law; operators invoicing locally should also check ZATCA, while licensing questions often route through MISA.
