For more than 30 years, since its founding by Saudi Royal Decree and the U.S. Executive Branch, the U.S.-Saudi Business Council has been the only independent organization singularly dedicated to advancing the bilateral business, investment, and commercial ties between the United States and Saudi Arabia.

With its strategic presence in Washington, D.C. and Riyadh, with its decades of experience and expertise, and with the unique depth and breadth of its stakeholder network, the Council continues to play a pivotal role in facilitating billions in cross-border trade and investment, fostering lasting business partnerships, and driving economic collaboration between both nations. As Saudi Arabia accelerates its Vision 2030 transformation and the U.S. strengthens its crucial business alliance with the Kingdom, the Council remains at the heart of this relationship—connecting companies, creating opportunities, and supporting partnerships that are shaping the future of business.
