For his part, Mohamed Al-Harbi, CEO of Rent Exhibitions and Conferences, explained that the launch of the STM will be a great opportunity to contribute to achieving the ambitious Saudi Vision 2030, which aims to diversify the economy, create new opportunities, and promote tourism and support the growth and development of the hospitality sector in Saudi Arabia.

Its growth will lead to new levels.
