Cityscape Global 2025: Over 200 Developers Shaping the Future of Urban Living

Cityscape Global 2025 is set to bring together world-leading developers pioneering sustainability and smart city technologies when it opens on November 17 in Riyadh.

Ambitious projects such as NHC, Diriyah Company, ROSHN, New Murabba, Qiddiya City, Rua Alharam Almakki Co, NEOM, KAFD, Red Sea Global, Masar Destination, Rua Al Haram, and King Salman Park Foundation are transforming Saudi Arabia’s urban landscapes, setting new standards for inclusive and sustainable communities.

As Saudi Arabia accelerates its real estate growth, the newly approved foreign home ownership law will also take center stage at Cityscape Global 2025. This landmark regulation is seen as a major step forward in the country’s global investment strategy, expected to boost international participation and capital inflows. For developers, investors, and sales professionals, this presents a prime opportunity to engage directly with the future of Saudi Arabia’s real estate sector.

Homeowner and Investment Opportunities

The event will host over 200 top developers showcasing a diverse portfolio of projects, from large-scale master-planned communities to high-end luxury developments and emerging destinations.

Attendees will gain access to exclusive offers from developers and financial institutions, including preferential pricing and special mortgage rates available only during the event. These limited-time opportunities strengthen Cityscape Global’s position as a catalyst for real estate investment and innovation across the region.

Participants will also have the chance to win exceptional prizes, including two family villas in Riyadh, SAR 2.2 million in prizes from Sakani, and four Black Land Rover Defenders from Dar wa Emaar — reinforcing the event’s dynamic appeal for both investors and future homeowners.

Saudi Developers Leading Vision 2030

Saudi developers are playing a vital role in realizing Vision 2030, creating communities that balance economic growth with cultural and environmental sustainability.

“NHC is proud to return to Cityscape Global 2025 with greater ambition,” said Mohammad Albuty, CEO of NHC. “We’re introducing 100,000 new housing units designed to build not just homes, but thriving, sustainable communities.”

Sabah Barakat, Acting Group CEO of ROSHN Group, added: “Our participation underlines our leadership in Saudi Arabia’s urban transformation. We are spotlighting mixed-use developments, innovation, and sustainability — creating cities that inspire and connect.”

Pioneering the Future of Urban Living

Cityscape Global 2025 highlights how community-driven and technology-enabled developments are reshaping cities. From data-led urban planning to eco-conscious infrastructure, these trends aim to elevate residents’ quality of life.

The event will also feature insights from renowned experts, including Sam Cotton (Battersea Power Station Development Company), Sheela Maini Søgaard (Bjarke Ingels Group), Isabella Alveberg (Snøhetta), and Tom Sleigh (London Planning and Transportation Committee), among others.

“Developers must design with climate resilience in mind,” said Surella Segú, Mexico’s first Chief Heat Officer. “Cities need less concrete and more nature — integrating greenery and shade to reduce energy use and improve living conditions.”

Global Participation and Collaboration

Cityscape Global 2025 will host a diverse international lineup, showcasing real estate innovation from the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Egypt, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, South Korea, and the UK.

From Binghatti Properties and Sobha (UAE) to Qatari Diar Real Estate (Qatar) and TMG (Egypt), each participant will bring unique expertise in sustainable, connected community development.

Rachel Sturgess, Senior VP at Tahaluf, stated: “As Saudi Arabia continues its urban transformation, Cityscape Global fosters collaboration and innovation that define the next generation of cities.”
