Luca Rubino - CEO Incorpify AI and Abdullah Alakeel MD & CEO of Plug and Play Saudi Arabia
RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA – Incorpify AI, in collaboration with Plug and Play Saudi Arabia, hosted an exclusive, high-level artificial intelligence forum in Riyadh, bringing together global AI innovators, enterprise leaders, investors, and senior government stakeholders to explore the next phase of AI-driven transformation in the Kingdom.
Held at The Garage – Majlis, the executive-level gathering underscored Saudi Arabia’s rapidly expanding role as a regional and global hub for artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, and technology-led economic diversification.
The forum was led by Luca Rubino, CEO and Co-Founder of Incorpify AI, alongside Kai Schildhauer, Co-Founder and COO. Designed as a strategic dialogue rather than a conventional conference, the event focused on practical AI deployment within enterprises, government institutions, and highly regulated industries.
Discussions centered on moving beyond experimentation toward structured, scalable implementation. Speakers emphasized how intelligent platforms can reduce operational complexity, strengthen governance frameworks, and enable more agile decision-making across public and private sectors.
“Saudi Arabia is demonstrating how ambition and execution can move in parallel,” said Luca Rubino, CEO of Incorpify AI. “The market is no longer asking whether to adopt AI, but how to deploy it responsibly and at scale. This is precisely where Incorpify AI positions itself — bridging innovation with operational reality.”
A featured panel discussion brought together influential voices from government, venture capital, enterprise technology, and AI platform development. Participants included:
The panel explored key themes shaping AI adoption across the Kingdom, including investment readiness, regulatory alignment, public-private collaboration, and the infrastructure required to sustainably scale intelligent systems. Particular emphasis was placed on ensuring interoperability between platforms and embedding compliance frameworks into AI architecture from inception.
Abdullah Alakeel, Managing Director of Plug and Play Saudi Arabia, highlighted the importance of ecosystem connectivity in driving meaningful impact.
“Saudi Arabia’s AI ecosystem is maturing rapidly, fueled by strong collaboration between government entities, corporations, venture capital, and technology builders,” Alakeel said. “Events like this play a critical role in connecting global innovation with local execution and ensuring that AI delivers measurable, real-world outcomes across industries.”
The forum aligns closely with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 objectives, which prioritize advanced technologies, knowledge-based economic growth, and digital infrastructure expansion. As the Kingdom continues to attract international technology partners and foster domestic innovation, platforms for dialogue such as this are becoming increasingly important in translating strategy into execution.
By hosting the event in Riyadh, Incorpify AI and Plug and Play reaffirmed their commitment to supporting Saudi Arabia’s innovation agenda while facilitating meaningful cross-border collaboration between global technology leaders and regional stakeholders.
