This year, we had the great honor of organising the German Pavilion at the Future Minerals Forum 2026 as part of the foreign trade fair promotion program of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BWME). 

 

The 5th Future Minerals Forum, which took place at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Center (KAICC), was held under the motto “Dawn for a Global Cause”. The 10 German companies participating in the pavilion presented their innovations and technologies “Made in Germany” to contribute to a sustainable and future-proof mining sector.

 

The event was rounded off by a Networking reception at the German Pavillion with H.E. Michael Kindsgrab, Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany to Saudi Arabia (German Embassy Riyadh), and our Delegate for the German Industry in Saudi Arabia, Dr. Dalia Samra-Rohte.

 

We would like to express our sincere thanks to our participating companies:

 

Liebherr Saudi Arabia, KSB Company, Steuler Linings, TOMRA, Thyssenkrupp 
IBZ-Salzchemie GmbH & Co. KG, Becker Mining Systems AG, ANDRITZ, MKS Anlasser- Und Elektrotechnik GmbH, Robert Bosch Saudi Arabia

 

On the final day our Delegate, Dr. Dalia Samra-Rohte, hosted a panel on ‘German Technologies Driving Innovation and Sustainability in Saudi Arabia’s Mining Sector’.

 

Saudi Arabia is transforming its mining sector into a central pillar of the national economy. The Kingdom is building a fully integrated mineral value chain – from exploration to processing and manufacturing. In addition, it is successfully attracting both foreign and local investment through enhanced regulations and improved infrastructure.
 

We would like to thank our expert panelists representing leading equipment providers as well as the finance sector for their time and valuable insights.
