Nesma & Partners participated as a Platinum Sponsor at the Future Minerals Forum 2026, held from 13 to 15 January 2026 at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Center in Riyadh.
Held under the Patronage of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, the Future Minerals Forum is a government-led global platform shaping the future of the minerals sector. Since 2022, FMF has brought together government officials, industry leaders, and stakeholders from across the mineral value chain to advance collaboration, strengthen supply chains, and promote sustainable development in support of global electrification and digital transformation.
Nesma & Partners was represented by our leadership team, including Samer Abdul Samad, President & CEO; Amin Aljaber, Chief Information Officer; Michael Fakhoury, Vice President of Energy; Bilal Ansari, Vice President of Civil & Infrastructure; Mohammed Alshareef, Business Development & Strategic Partnerships Director; and Talal Sukkar, Corporate Business Development Manager. They were joined by colleagues from Procurement, Infrastructure, Corporate Communications, and Business Development, who represented the company at the forum.
A key highlight of our participation was Amin Aljaber’s contribution to the panel discussion “Mining 4.0: The New Era of Tech-Driven Mining,” held on the final day at the Main Valley Stage. During the session, he highlighted that digital infrastructure, data readiness, and AI preparedness are essential foundations for scaling Mining 4.0, emphasizing the need to address adoption challenges alongside technology deployment and foster collaboration across the mining ecosystem to achieve sustainable outcomes.
Throughout the three days, the team engaged with industry peers to exchange insights on emerging trends, sustainable mining practices, and sector innovation, while strengthening strategic partnerships and exploring new collaboration opportunities.
Our participation at FMF 2026 reflects Nesma & Partners’ ongoing commitment to supporting national transformation through innovation, collaboration, and sustainable growth.
