Summary

Saudi Arabia postponed its Future Investment Initiative conference, known as 'Davos in the Desert,' originally scheduled for Oct. 26-29 in Riyadh, until 2027. The announcement followed a series of Houthi attacks on Saudi airports. Organizers said the delay would ensure the 10th edition delivers the scale and quality expected by partners and delegates, without mentioning the attacks. Replacement dates will be announced soon.
