15 - 17 SEPTEMBER 2026
INDEX Design Talks is the only conference built around how Saudi Arabia’s next generation of projects are actually being designed, specified and delivered. Every element of the programme ladders up to one core promise: practical, commercially relevant insight from the people shaping the Kingdom’s most ambitious developments.
Attend the talks and leave with the knowledge to design better projects, specify smarter products and make more informed commercial decisions.
1. Early visibility into client expectations
Hear directly from the developers, operators and project owners commissioning Saudi Arabia’s biggest projects. Know where demand is heading before your competitors do.
2. Lessons from real projects
Case studies, challenges, outcomes and what teams would do differently next time. Apply practical ideas immediately to current and future projects.
3. Clarity on what works in Saudi Arabia
Understand how global best practice is adapted for local climate, culture, heritage and regulation. Make design and specification decisions that succeed in the Kingdom - not just overseas.
4. Access to the people influencing specifications
Architects, interior designers, developers, hotel operators, government representatives, procurement leaders and consultants. Build relationships with professionals who shape supplier choices across major developments.
5. Insight into the trends shaping Vision 2030 projects
AI in design, future workplaces, hospitality evolution, material innovation, sustainability, Saudi identity and human‑centred design. Stay ahead of industry change and position your work for the next five years.
INDEX Saudi Arabia 2024 is the place to be when it comes to Interior products and companies, showcasing the world’s best international products as well as an exquisite selection of regional players. The quality of talks, experts and events is of very high standard and I am looking forward to return, continuing to expand on our knowledge and passion for the whole region.
