Hosted by the Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority (SAGIA) under the

the Global Competitiveness Forum is an annual meeting of top business
executives, international political leaders, selected intellectuals and
academics who share an interest in global competitiveness.

business practices across its regional and international operations and
highlights the moves being made by companies such as Zamil Industrial to
champion the need for Saudi companies to invest in responsible and competitive

The Saudi Responsible
Competitiveness Index (SARCI) is an initiative of the Saudi Arabian General
Investment Authority and is part of its strategy to make Saudi Arabia one of
the top 10 most competitive economies by 2010. It seeks to help responsible
businesses to improve their performance and build economic competitiveness,
social progress and sustainability, helping to build competitiveness within
industry sectors, cities and at the national level. The Index is intended to
form a core part of the process of building medium-term growth potential
through social and environmental performance within the Kingdom. |
