The 3rd Stormwater Conference Saudi Arabia, taking place on 9–10 February 2026 at Jeddah Hilton, Saudi Arabia, returns as the Kingdom’s leading platform dedicated to advancing stormwater infrastructure, resilience planning, and sustainable urban drainage solutions. Held at a critical time for Saudi Arabia’s urban and infrastructure transformation, the conference will convene government authorities, developers, utilities, engineers, consultants, and technology providers shaping the future of stormwater management across the Kingdom.
Now in its third edition, the conference has firmly positioned itself as the industry’s trusted meeting point—where policy, engineering, technology, and investment intersect. It serves as a knowledge-sharing hub for stakeholders addressing increasing flood risks, rapid urbanisation, and climate-driven weather events impacting cities such as Riyadh, Jeddah, and key coastal regions. As Saudi Arabia accelerates its Vision 2030 ambitions, stormwater infrastructure has become a national priority, embedded within giga-projects, smart city developments, and integrated water strategies under the Saudi Water Authority.
The conference will spotlight resilient stormwater infrastructure, with a strong focus on digital transformation, sustainability, and scalable deployment. Delegates will explore innovative solutions such as IoT-enabled monitoring systems, digital twins for drainage networks, AI-driven flood forecasting, and predictive analytics for asset lifecycle management. These technologies are redefining how stormwater systems are planned, monitored, and maintained across complex urban environments.
Key discussions will also address Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) and Low Impact Development (LID) strategies adapted for arid climates, alongside green infrastructure solutions including bioswales, permeable landscapes, and stormwater reuse systems. With major investments underway through national and municipal programs, the event will examine regulatory updates, permitting pathways, and climate-responsive design standards shaping the next generation of stormwater projects.
A strong emphasis will be placed on modular and precast solutions for rapid infrastructure deployment, utility mapping and site intelligence, and automated inspection systems for aging networks. The agenda will further highlight public-private partnerships (PPPs) and cross-sector collaboration as essential enablers for delivering large-scale stormwater initiatives efficiently and sustainably.
Complementing the conference program, the exhibition will offer exclusive opportunities for solution providers and technology vendors to showcase new products, machinery, and digital platforms directly to project owners and decision-makers. With over 250 delegates, 30+ expert speakers, and 20+ sponsors and partners, the event provides a high-value environment for networking, lead generation, and strategic partnerships.
As climate resilience becomes central to urban planning in Saudi Arabia, the 3rd Stormwater Conference KSA at Jeddah Hilton stands as a cornerstone event—supporting the Kingdom’s commitment to flood resilience, water sustainability, and future-ready infrastructure.
