The two parties highlighted the opportunities that Saudi Vision 2030 gives to foreign investments. They also discussed potential cooperation in technology and small businesses, along with ways ahead for future successful partnerships to develop the trade relations between the two kingdoms and hold joint economic forums.

The meeting also stressed on the need for partnerships between Saudi and British companies and the role that the Saudi British Business Council plays in introducing investment opportunities in the two countries, and enhancing commercial relations.
