Saudi Arabia's Qiddiya Investment Company (QIC) held talks on Wednesday to discuss future investment opportunities for its first mega entertainment and sports city. "The project will be built on a combination of our capital that is deployed alongside investment capital from many other sources," Michael Reininger, chief executive officer of QIC, told media at a press conference at Qiddiya's welcome center on Wednesday. Qiddiya, some 40 km southwest of the capital Riyadh, is one of the kingdom's giga-projects set to unlock tremendous opportunity, enabling economic diversification, while enhancing the quality of life for Saudi citizens under the Vision 2030 reform plan. According to Reininger, Qiddiya is expected to have its grand opening in 2023. (Xinhua/Tu Yifan)
