RIYADH: The fifth Saudi Media Forum, to be held from Feb. 2-4, has launched the Expert Hub initiative to give practitioners and young talent direct access to national media leaders through focused one-on-one meetings.
Designed as a voluntary bridge between generations, the initiative fosters in-depth discussions to empower the next generation of professionals in a dedicated forum space, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
By building these personal connections, the initiative strengthens Saudi media and helps participants gain experience and lasting professional networks.
The forum is a leading annual platform for media professionals and decision-makers. The 2026 event, under the theme “Media in a Shaping World,” will feature more than 150 sessions and 300 speakers.
The event reflects the Kingdom’s growing cultural and media landscape and its role as a regional hub for industry dialogue, the SPA added.
