By: Dr. Mahmoud Mansi (Women of Saudi Arabia Publisher)

From redefining wealth to connecting with global decision-makers, Riyadh is preparing to host a summit designed to inspire a new generation of women leaders.

On September 28–29, 2026, Riyadh will welcome hundreds of entrepreneurs, executives, investors, policymakers, and innovators for the Women Shaping Wealth Summit 2026, powered by PLAYBOOK and Women Spark, that shall take place at The Garage – the largest startup hub in the Middle East, located in the King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology.

“Women of Saudi Arabia Magazine”

is proud to be an official Media Partner of the Women Shaping Wealth Summit 2026.

More than a traditional business conference, the summit aims to redefine what wealth means for modern women—placing equal emphasis on wellbeing, leadership, influence, entrepreneurship, and meaningful connections. Here are five reasons why this event deserves a place on your calendar:

1. It Redefines What “Wealth” Really Means

Success is no longer measured solely by financial assets.

The Women Shaping Wealth Summit introduces a broader perspective that combines:

– Financial prosperity

– Personal wellbeing

– Professional growth

– Leadership influence

– Meaningful relationships

– Long-term impact

Rather than focusing exclusively on investment strategies or entrepreneurship, the summit explores how women can build sustainable success across every aspect of life.

2. Three Dedicated Learning Tracks Mean Something for Everyone

The summit has been designed around three immersive experiences that allow attendees to focus on their personal and professional goals.

Money in Motion: Explore entrepreneurship, investment, business growth, financial planning, and future economic opportunities.

Wealth in Wellbeing: Learn how health, longevity, resilience, and peak performance contribute directly to long-term success.

Power in Networks: Discover how relationships, leadership, influence, strategic partnerships, and public policy shape today’s opportunities.

Instead of offering isolated keynote speeches, the event creates an integrated learning journey that reflects the realities of modern leadership.

3. You’ll Build Relationships That Continue Long After the Event

Networking has become one of the summit’s strongest value propositions.

More than 250 international leaders and 50+ strategic partners are expected to participate, creating opportunities to connect with:

– Entrepreneurs

– Investors

– Corporate executives

– Government representatives

– Policymakers

– Wellness experts

– Industry innovators

Participants will also benefit from PLAYBOOK’s technology platform, which enables personalized networking, agenda planning, digital mentorship registration, and continued access to learning resources after the summit concludes.

The goal isn’t simply exchanging business cards—it’s building lasting professional relationships.

4. The Entire Experience Has Been Designed Around the Attendee

Many conferences focus on what happens on stage.

This summit focuses equally on what happens before, during, and after every session.

Attendees can expect:

– Personalized schedules

– Curated networking opportunities

– Digital mentoring access

– Interactive event technology

– Premium attendee experience kits

– Continued educational resources following the event

Every touchpoint has been intentionally designed to create a seamless, engaging, and memorable experience.

5. It’s Part of Saudi Arabia’s 2030 Vision for the Future

Hosting the Women Shaping Wealth Summit in Riyadh reflects Saudi Arabia’s continued investment in women’s empowerment and leadership development.

The event aligns closely with Saudi Vision 2030, supporting national priorities that include:

– Increasing women’s participation in the workforce

– Encouraging entrepreneurship

– Strengthening investment ecosystems

– Promoting ESG and inclusion initiatives

Positioning Riyadh as a global destination for business events and innovation

As Saudi Arabia continues its transformation, gatherings like this play an important role in connecting local ambitions with global expertise.

More Than a Summit—A Global Movement

Quoting from Wafa AlObaidat, Founder and CEO of PLAYBOOK:

“This Summit is a defining moment—where Riyadh becomes the center of a new global conversation about women, wealth, and leadership. It’s not just an event; it’s a movement and a legacy that will last far beyond two days.”

Whether you’re building a business, advancing your leadership journey, expanding your network, or simply looking for inspiration, the Women Shaping Wealth Summit 2026 offers an opportunity to engage with some of the most influential voices shaping the future of women and wealth.
