Riyadh is poised to become the epicenter of media and technology innovation as over 500 global companies have shown interest in participating in the Future of Media Exhibition (FOMEX 2027). Scheduled to take place from February 1 to 3, 2027, alongside the Saudi Media Forum, FOMEX 2027 is expected to be the largest media exhibition in the region, attracting significant international attention. This surge in interest follows the success of the previous Saudi Media Forum, which welcomed over 65,000 visitors and featured 200 companies from more than 50 countries, generating 116 million digital impressions and even earning a Guinness World Records title. The exhibition aims to unite industry leaders, innovators, and content creators to showcase cutting-edge advancements in media technology, digital transformation, artificial intelligence, and broadcasting. Mohammed Fahad Al-Harthi, president of the Saudi Media Forum, emphasized that the strong interest from international firms reflects Saudi Arabia's rising prominence in the global media and technology sectors. FOMEX 2027 is set to facilitate significant technology launches and strategic partnerships, positioning itself as a vital platform for investment opportunities and insights into emerging trends that are reshaping the media landscape.
