This book provides valuable insights into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) through a comprehensive examination of Vision 2030, an ambitious economic plan by the KSA to reinvent and diversify its economy from a heavy dependence on hydrocarbon to knowledge-based resources. Research, Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Saudi Arabia: Vision 2030 discusses how this initiative will assist the government in achieving its envisioned goals by creating a culture of research, innovation and entrepreneurship. It studies the current state of the field as well as new policies and reforms in Saudi Arabia which encompass education systems, ICT infrastructure and a vibrant innovation landscape that includes academia, the public and private sectors and civil society. The authors present a number of real-life case studies as a model of inspiration for cross-sector development. The book provides a source of inspiration for other nations in studying the KSA’s determined and ambitious plans as a country in a transitioning journey, from a natural resources-based economy towards a knowledge-based country with considerable diversification in all sectors. This book is a useful reference for students, researchers and policy and decision-makers in understanding Saudi innovation and the economic diversification ecosystem.

Key focuses in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's (KSA) Vision 2030 were to diversify the economy beyond oil and to create jobs for Saudis. Although the creation of Almarai in 1977 preceded the promulgation of Vision 2030 in 2016, Almarai's dairy business and other food services are consistent with Vision 2030 in terms of diversification beyond oil and creating jobs for Saudis. Petroleum related products constitute more than 90% of the nation's exports. Almarai has the largest dairy farm in the world, which creates jobs in the food industry for Saudis. Almarai's business is vertically integrated from farms to production and distribution. To produce alfalfa for cattle feed, it bought land in Argentina in 2012, in Arizona in 2014, in California in 2015, and Romania in 2019 for its dairy herd of 170,000 cattle. The international land purchases allowed the KSA to phase out domestic alfalfa production. In 2016, the KSA launched a 3-year program to reduce KSA-based production of alfalfa and other commodities used as inputs for dairy and livestock production. It was imprudent to grow alfalfa in the KSA because this activity would seriously deplete the aquifers.The case involves three basic issues. First, importing alfalfa grown with scarce water in the parched areas of southern California and Arizona to the KSA is controversial. Should Americans living in the area have an ethical claim to this water, a scarce and vital resource? A second issue is the KSA's desire to import some food and grow inputs like alfalfa abroad on purchased or leased agricultural land. Was this a viable strategy? Finally, the third issue is domestic production to diversify the industrial base, provide jobs for Saudis, and provide domestically produced food. The KSA feared the impact of COVID-19 and other crises could disrupt supply chains. However, locally produced food would never satisfy its growing population. Did it make economic and political sense to support a venture such as Almarai?

This study explored the views of Saudi Arabian males, who matriculated at institutions of higher education in the United States, concerning traditional Saudi values (women, culture and family roles) and Saudi Vision 2030. As an initiative in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Vision 2030 is a blueprint to expand the oil-based economical structure. The research question inquired about how the acculturation of Saudi male students in the United States influenced their acceptance of the Saudi Vision 2030 agreement, regarding male dominance, women empowerment, and cultural changes. A sample of 265 Saudi male undergraduate and graduate students from multiple universities in the United States completed an online survey. Participants reported their degree of acculturation before and after attending school in the United States via the Vancouver Index of Acculturation (VIA). Results suggested that mainstream acculturation influenced Saudi male students' views on women empowerment. Heritage and mainstream acculturation, however, did not influence Saudi male students' views on male dominance or cultural changes. The length of time students spent studying in the United States shaped their views toward women empowerment and cultural changes. Students' before views and education levels affected Saudi male students' views toward male dominance. The findings suggested that studying in the United States affected Saudi male views toward women's rights, male dominance, and cultural changes.

In April 2016, the Saudi Arabian government announced Vision 2030, a highly ambitious reform program designed to move the country away from its reliance on oil revenues and to liberalize its conservative social dynamics. Despite the monarchy's autocratic power, the kingdom has largely failed to employ citizens in the private sector, diversify its industries beyond hydrocarbon-related activity, and privatize the key drivers of its economy since adopting these goals in 1970. The majority of the population is under the age of 30, unemployment is high, and international energy markets are changing, so the country's leadership needs to make changes that provide opportunity for the people and make the economy more sustainable. This thesis examines why the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) struggles to implement economic and social reform. Analyzing interconnected political, economic, and social causes that manifest in the structure of the state and society, the resource curse, and market inefficiencies, the ultimate barrier to reform is the kingdom's political dynamics. Without improvements to governance and modifications to the country's patronage policies, economic change will be limited at best. Elites' preferences for blocking political reform has hampered achievement of economic goals and will continue to prove problematic if not rescinded. I. INTRODUCTION * A. OVERVIEW * B.

This book explores the changing role of Muslim women in the economy in the twenty-first century. Sociological developments such as secular education, female-focused policies, national and global commitments to gender equality as well as contemporary technological advances have all served to shift and redefine the domestic and public roles of Muslim women, leading in many places to increases in workplace participation ​and entrepreneurship. The volume investigates the contexts of these shifts and the experiences of women balancing faith and other commitments to actively engage in the economy in vastly different countries. The book looks at how family codes and the understandings of Muslim male and female roles sit alongside social and economic advances and the increases in women partaking in the economy. ​Within a globalised world, it also highlights the importance of the implementation of the current sustainable development priorities in the context of Muslim societies, including Sustainable Development Goal 5 that focuses on the vital role of women and their full participation in all areas of sustainable development. With cases ranging from Saudi Arabia, Iran, Bangladesh, ​Pakistan, Indonesia, Nigeria, Kenya through to Spain, Bulgaria​ and Australia, Muslim Women in the Economy will be of considerable interest to those studying, researching and interested in gender, development and religious studies.

Since the discovery of oil in commercial quantities at Dammam oil well No.7 in March 4, 1938, Saudi Arabia has been almost totally dependent on the oil-export revenues. Seventy eight years later and a cumulative production of 146 billion barrels of oil (bb) since then, Saudi Arabia's budget is still dependent on the oil revenues to the tune of 90%. This is a moment of high anxiety in Saudi Arabia. Oil prices, currently $50/barrel, are less than half the level the Saudi government needs in order to balance its books. Moreover, its financial reserves are depleting very fast. There is nothing the Saudis need more than comprehensive economic reform. The kingdom must end its deep reliance on the oil revenue and build a dynamic 21st century economy. The current path can't be sustained much longer. That is why the kingdom has launched Vision 2030 which aims to expand the non-oil sector of the economy and reduce unemployment. However, to achieve the objectives of Vision 2030, Saudi Arabia needs to start the diversification of its economy without a minute's delay. The paper will argue that as Vision 2030 is a plan designed to create a 21st century Saudi economy virtually from scratch, it will encounter some huge hurdles not least because of the suspicion that this project has something to do with the generational change in leadership when king Salman departs the scene. It will also argue that Vision 2030 may not achieve much since it's not bold enough in the area that matters most -- developing human capital. Still it is a step in the right direction if there is the political will to go ahead with it.
