The Public Investment Fund (PIF) organized a Partners' Forum as part of its efforts to support its portfolio companies as an active and engaged investor. The event brought together 75 companies and 200 individuals from PIF portfolio companies working in a broad range of sectors. A number of experts in digital disruption – including global specialists in cybersecurity, AI and data analytics – discussed future trends and the risks and opportunities they create. The PIF Partners' Forum also saw widespread discussion between participants regarding the potential impact of technology on disparate industries across the PIF portfolio. During the forum, PIF introduced and outlined the PIF Way – the mechanism by which the fund aims to support and drive value creation alongside its portfolio companies, building on PIF's independent governance and operational framework. The PIF Way aims helps businesses in supporting the development of an effective governance structure, identifying and supporting new sources of growth and profitability, leveraging PIF's infrastructure and making the most of the advantages offered by PIF's extensive local and global network of companies, thought leaders, investors and government stakeholders.
