Vision 2030 Origins
His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS) created Vision 2030, as part of his larger ambition to bring Saudi Arabia into a brighter future. Vision 2030 brings together the kingdom’s national beauty, technical leadership, and strategic location to build towards a more sustainable lifestyle.
Vision 2030 was launched in 2016, and since then, Saudi Arabia has made significant strides towards reform, with advances in the public sector, economy, and societal norms. These changes not only serve as the foundation for Vision 2030, but also have already made huge strides in economic diversification, investment opportunities, and global engagment.
Key Pillars of Vision 2030
Vision 2030 is all about creating a vibrant society that will advance society and individual’s lives. The first pillar is dedicated to building a society where residents are happy, productive, and fulfilled.
This society incorporates strong cultural roots from modern Islam, Saudi heritage and culture, with the best strides in sustainable living, cultural development, and social care. This intersection will prioritize the society, its people and their wellbeing, above all else.
The second pillar focuses on economic development, which will allow the Saudi Arabian economy to further diversify into tourism, technology, education, and more.
With world-class infrastructure for business and investment, it will be an ideal location to build new business ventures, nurture developing ideas, and invest in the next generation of thinkers and leaders.
The third pillar strives to build the most efficient and accountable systems for its people. This includes a government and public systems that epitomize effectiveness, transparency, and accountability.
These structures will not only be the foundation of the elevated Vision 2030 society, but also enable higher quality of life for its citizens.
