The Fire Middle East Conference 2025
The second Fire Middle East Conference took place at the Voco Hotel, Riyadh, and featured over 250+ fire and safety professionals, uniting to define the future of their industries.
The Fire Middle East Conference revolved around three core promises to our delegates: knowledge, future-proofing and networking. All of the sessions were designed to enable critical discussions, support the forging of new alliances and help align businesses with the values of the Saudi Vision 2030 initiative.
In addition, our Tech Stage presentations were designed to inspire new innovative directions for Fire and Safety, within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and by extension, the world.
