Hosted by the Saudi Esports Federation, Next World Forum is a gaming and esports ecosystem gathering place designed to focus on the new horizons and opportunities around the burgeoning esports economy and gaming as the fastest growing media sub-sector globally. With distinct yet integrated ecosystems, gaming and esports are combining to present a sector that offers both rich opportunities for industry and governments – but also new expectations from gamers around business models.

The Forum also features a series of activations, bilateral meetings, and the game-changing opportunities that exist to fast-track sector growth through investment and collaboration, across two days.
