I am pleased to thank the Saudi Council of Engineers for organizing this conference in a series of conferences, aimed towards searching for appropriate methods to enhance the role of the engineering sector and the profession as a fundamental pillar of economic activity.

I also thank the contributors to the conference, from participants and attendees from the Honorable ministers and their Excellencies from the institutions of the public and private sectors, and the guests of this conference from around the world.

This International Engineering Conference and Exhibition, organized by the Saudi Council of Engineers charts the future of the engineering profession and engineers locally, in the region and internationally. This conference is concerned with building a better tomorrow through this large scientific crowd. Hosted in Riyadh, it will present rich engineering experiences, educate engineers about the issues of the current era, and renew engineering thought in light of what is happening around it in the world.

This International Engineering Conference and Exhibition is a qualitative initiative by the council to add professional and scientific benefit to the engineering sector through the global components presented by the conference, by exchanging experiences and presenting opinions and experiences through a large number of speakers representing a large number of countries, by presenting more than 150+ specialized worksheets.

We know for sure that supporting, promoting and encouraging the engineering sector is important, as it has developed the appropriate legislative and regulatory environment for the practice of engineering work through the Saudi Council of Engineers and overcoming obstacles in front of it.

In conclusion, I hope that the conference will come out with recommendations that are in the interest of the profession and the engineer, to be of assistance in developing the profession for the benefit of the country and its citizens.
