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
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 decision comes from Riyadh… and the world responds
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...

Europe’s bid to stand alone
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...

Where learning takes root and sustainability grows
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...
