Yasir Al-Rumayyan (Governor of Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund; Aramco chairman) — official PIF statement on the 2026–2030 strategy, 15 Apr 2026: the PIF as the engine of Saudi Arabia's economic transformation — giga-projects, AI, gaming/esports, renewables, real estate — supporting Vision 2030 through domestic ecosystems, national champions and global partnerships.

PIF’s strategy continues to deliver results as we grow domestically and internationally. In less than a decade, we have launched unprecedented projects, including giga-projects and major real estate developments, in addition to unique investments in strategic sectors such as artificial intelligence, gaming and esports, and renewable energy.

PIF will continue to support Saudi Vision 2030 objectives by delivering competitive domestic ecosystems, investing in national champions that have the potential to scale globally, and forming global economic partnerships, building on what has been achieved under PIF’s 2021-2025 strategy.

From the official statement on the PIF's 2026–2030 strategy (15 April 2026, approved by a board chaired by MBS). He frames the PIF as the driver of Saudi Arabia's ECONOMIC TRANSFORMATION and DIVERSIFICATION away from oil: launching "giga-projects" (e.g. NEOM) and major real-estate developments, and investing in strategic sectors — artificial intelligence, gaming and esports, and renewable energy — while supporting Vision 2030 by "delivering competitive domestic ecosystems, investing in national champions that have the potential to scale globally, and forming global economic partnerships." This is the SAUDI STATE-LED, SOVEREIGN-WEALTH-DRIVEN economic-transformation pole — a distinct point on the economic axis: a top-down, fund-led diversification model, contrasting with Egypt's private-sector-led market reform (Mostafa Madbouly), Morocco's social democracy (Driss Lachgar), and older statist/redistributive models; and the economic counterpart to MBS's political authority.
