Neom City: A Mega Development in Saudi Arabia

Neom City is a large-scale development located in the northwest of Saudi Arabia, encompassing several giga-projects such as The Line, Trojena, Sindalah, Zardun, Aquellum, and Epicon.

Investment Strategy and Development Focus

Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) is nearing approval of a revised investment strategy for the Neom giga-project, according to governor Yasir Al Rumayyan. This strategy reflects the fund’s broader shift to focus on six key development areas.

Expansion Plans by Red Sea Global

Luxury resort developer Red Sea Global (RSG) intends to grow its operations beyond Saudi Arabia. CEO John Pagano revealed plans for their first international project in Italy, targeting the tourism and hospitality sectors. Additionally, Pagano announced he will join the board of the Neom mega-project.

"The plan is part of the fund’s wider shift to concentrate on six major development areas."
"John Pagano told Reuters that he will be joining the board of the kingdom’s mega-project Neom."

RSG is owned by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, which manages significant investment portfolios in the kingdom.

Neom City represents a transformative vision for Saudi Arabia, integrating multiple giga-projects with a strategic investment shift focused on sustainable development and global expansion.
