The US Chamber of Commerce says it is “very bullish” on opportunities to grow business and investment in Saudi Arabia — as American interest expands beyond traditional energy ties.

Steve Lutes, Vice President of Middle East Affairs, joins Tom Burges Watson on The Riyal Deal to discuss the Chamber’s first-ever AI business delegation to the Kingdom, growing opportunities in AI, healthcare and entertainment — and why being on the ground matters for US companies looking to grow in Saudi Arabia.

He also looks ahead to FII 2026 and the next decade of Vision 2030.

Guest: Steve Lutes, Vice President of Middle East Affairs, US Chamber of Commerce
