Driving transformational change in healthcare institutions: From vision to impact
Starting significant transformation inside a healthcare company is no easy task. Along with strategy and leadership, it calls for tenacity, evidence-based judgment, and a strong awareness of the human factor.Rising healthcare expenses, an aging population, and the weight of chronic diseases put institutions all around under more and more pressure to fundamentally rather than just incrementally change.The World Health Organization estimates that, at $9.8 trillion in 2022, global health spending accounted for about 10% of the world GDP.In the Middle East, Saudi Arabia alone allocated more than $50 billion to healthcare, representing 17% of its total budget.Many systems nonetheless suffer with inefficiency, inadequate patient experiences, and burnout among healthcare professionals despite...

Trump’s Riyadh visit: A signal of global recalibration
Before President Donald Trump’s plane even touched down in Riyadh, the world stood at a decisive crossroads—caught between the prospect of dangerous escalations or the promise of long-overdue settlements that could end years of unrest across multiple regions.The recent era has been marked by instability—partly due to the diminishing clarity and strength of America’s global role.The signs are everywhere: the grinding war between Russia and Ukraine, a heated escalation between India and Pakistan, and persistent volatility in Iran, Iraq, Syria, Palestine, and Israel. This vacuum has had consequences.Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia, however, reframed the equation. It signaled something more than symbolism — it carried the weight of intent.It told the world that the coming years of...

Trump’s Riyadh visit: A signal of global recalibration

Dr. Sami Alrashidi.
Preventive justice through unified legal contract
The premise that legal modernization requires dramatic reform is both overstated and misread. In many cases, the more enduring reforms are the quieter ones — the administrative, the procedural, and the contractual. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's introduction of a Unified Legal Contract for Lawyers is a case in point.What is being reformed is not the concept of legal advocacy, nor the essence of client representation, but the structure that holds it together. The reform requires that the relationship between lawyers and their clients be formalized, standardized, and digitally registered through Najiz, the national digital justice platform.The Minister of Justice and Chairman of the Saudi Bar Association, Walid Al-Samaani, has launched the Unified Contract for Lawyer Fees to regulate...

The Arabian way: Rethinking power through peace and partnership
“My preference will always be for peace and partnership,” US President Donald Trump affirmed in Riyadh during the first foreign visit of his second term in office.The US president was addressing a distinguished audience of the US-Saudi Investment Forum, headed by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.In his 48-minute-long speech, Trump celebrated Saudi Arabia’s strides toward progress, crediting its leadership and people for driving change from within: “It’s crucial for the wider world to know this great transformation did not come from Western intervention... You achieved a modern miracle the Arabian way. That’s a good way.”Those remarks were not just congratulatory of Saudi Arabia’s major achievements in recent years, but an assertion of the shift in US foreign policy...

The Arabian way: Rethinking power through peace and partnership

The decision comes from Riyadh… and the world responds
When a U.S. president of Donald Trump’s stature speaks about an Arab leader, it is not diplomatic flattery—it is a rare commendation reserved for those who transcend local influence to shape global decision-making. And when that leader is Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, we are witnessing a moment where Riyadh is not merely shifting its position—but reshaping the global landscape.“Mohammed bin Salman is wise, unmatched, hard working—I don’t think he even sleeps,” Trump remarked. These were not idle compliments, but a declaration—one capital of power acknowledging another. His words were born not of courtesy, but of experience: the rise of a leader molding his nation around the standards of the future rather than the traditions of the past.Today, the Crown Prince is more...

Trump’s Riyadh visit signals strategic recalibration
In a move that transcends diplomatic protocol, U.S. President Donald Trump is set to arrive in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, marking his first foreign trip since returning to the White House for a second, non-consecutive term. The announcement by the White House has drawn global attention, given the timing, symbolism, and underlying strategic motives.Unlike traditional state visits driven by ceremonial optics or domestic political gain, this visit unfolds in a context where Trump is constitutionally barred from seeking a third term. As such, it carries no electoral weight, only the hallmarks of a broader geopolitical strategy. It reflects an administration seeking to re-anchor the U.S. role in global affairs through economic tools and reinvigorated partnerships, particularly with key Gulf...

From his own resources… Luminous lessons in leadership and humanity
In an era where words often outweigh actions, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman presents a fresh and living lesson in genuine leadership and humanity. The Crown Prince’s unprecedented and generous donation of one billion Saudi riyals (approximately 267 million US dollars) from his personal funds to the National Developmental Housing Foundation (Sakan), through the “Jood Eskan” initiative, reflects a profound commitment to serving the citizens.Yet, the true beauty of this act lies not merely in its extraordinary value, but in the deep messages it conveys — messages deserving of thoughtful reflection and admiration.First: A generous donation...

Europe’s bid to stand alone
In recent weeks, European nations have been grappling with a shifting geopolitical reality: the United States, under President Donald Trump’s influence and perhaps again in the near future, appears increasingly insistent that Europe should manage its own fate and shoulder the consequences of its choices. This stance is hardly surprising—Trump has long expressed frustration over what he perceives as America’s disproportionate burden in defending a continent unwilling to invest adequately in its own security.At the same time, as European leaders champion their support for Ukraine and call for strategic autonomy, it is as though the continent is telling itself, in that familiar, world-weary voice: “Let me be.”Should this divergence continue over the next four years, it will reshape...

Where learning takes root and sustainability grows
Saudi Arabia’s natural landscape is rich, diverse, and defined by its distinct character. From its mountain ranges and expansive deserts to fertile valleys, highlands, lakes, and coastlines, every region reveals a unique ecological identity shaped by geography and time. This environmental wealth holds enduring value as a national asset, calling for preservation, restoration, and stewardship for generations to come. The Saudi Green Initiative (SGI) stands as a bold national step toward a more sustainable future. With an ambition to rehabilitate over 74 million hectares of land, it reimagines the balance between progress and environmental responsibility. And behind every transformation, there is always a driving force — education that inspires, awareness that empowers, and engagement...

The season has begun — and one comment shook us all
By Sara Von Kienegger Did Helmut Marko, the so-called “Doctor of Motorsport,” really say he’s concerned about Max Verstappen’s future? And now we’re hearing whispers of a possible sabbatical? By the age of 27, Verstappen had already secured four world championships. He claimed his first in 2021—edging out seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton in a now-iconic season—and went on to dominate the sport through 2024, winning title after title with unwavering consistency. For me, Formula 1 isn’t just a sport—it’s part of my upbringing. Growing up in Austria, the sound of burning rubber on asphalt was a familiar soundtrack each spring. When the season started, windows flew open, fresh air filled the farmhouse, and families gathered around the TV. The men watched intently, the...
