Saudi Arabia’s Non-Oil Economy Continues Robust Growth in 2025 as Investments Surge Across Sectors
Saudi Arabia’s non-oil economy continues its upward trajectory in 2025, powered by sustained government investments, strong private-sector performance, and unprecedented growth in emerging industries. New data from the Ministry of Economy shows that non-oil activities expanded at a healthy pace, driven by construction, tourism, advanced manufacturing, and financial services.
Analysts attribute the momentum to ongoing Vision 2030 initiatives, which are accelerating diversification efforts and positioning the Kingdom as a global hub for innovation, logistics, and sustainable development. Major giga-projects—such as NEOM, Qiddiya, and The Red Sea—continue to attract international investors and talent, reinforcing the Kingdom’s status as one of the fastest-growing business destinations in the region.
With new public–private partnership models and increased investor confidence, Saudi Arabia is on track to exceed several of its economic goals before 2030.
