“It was a privilege to participate in this morning’s panel discussion at the Trenchless Technology Conference. Our conversation focused on the importance of learning from past experiences and applying those lessons to shape a more efficient and resilient future. Saudi Arabia, under its Vision 2030, presents a tremendous opportunity to embrace advanced solutions such as trenchless technology especially in the face of climate change, the rise of AI, and growing infrastructure demands”

Thank you for the opportunity to be part of the International Trenchless Exhibition & Conference (ITEC 2025). This event has been incredibly valuable in supporting our efforts to explore and implement trenchless technologies across capital projects currently in the design and technical study phases. The timing of ITEC 2025 was ideal, aligning with the advancement of our approved project portfolio, many of which are now moving into execution. The conference facilitated meaningful networking, engagement with global suppliers and manufacturers, and exposure to new innovations that will further strengthen our implementation strategies. My appreciation goes to the Great Minds team for delivering a well-organized and impactful conference. I look forward to future collaborations and continuing to bring these conversations into actionable outcomes

This event brought together a wide range of industry professionals and technology providers. We were able to engage with companies offering innovative solutions, allowing us to exchange experiences and approaches that differ from one city or region to another. This kind of knowledge-sharing is crucial to advancing our practices and enhancing the efficiency of public infrastructure projects.Conferences like ITEC 2025 are essential for public utilities such as the Riyadh Municipality to connect with solution developers and stay informed about cost-effective and non-disruptive technologies. For example, trenchless methods can be up to ten times more cost-efficient compared to traditional tunneling. These are the types of insights we must consider as we plan and execute future projects

It was a pleasure to participate in the panel discussion at the International Trenchless Exhibition & Conference (ITEC 2025), where we addressed the critical role of trenchless technology in supporting Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030. As the Kingdom accelerates infrastructure development, trenchless solutions provide a strategic advantage enabling rapid expansion with minimal disruption to daily life and urban activity.I would like to extend my appreciation to the Great Minds Group for organizing such a well-executed event. The conference delivered exceptional value by facilitating knowledge exchange and showcasing the latest advancements in trenchless technology

At the International Trenchless Exhibition & Conference (ITEC 2025), I had the opportunity to present on the topic of trenchless drilling technologies, including tunneling and transboring. We explored the definition of these advanced techniques and their application in comparison to traditional open-cut excavation.This conference offered a strong platform for technical exchange, knowledge-sharing, and building partnerships with technology providers. I appreciate the opportunity to contribute and look forward to continued collaboration in this field

I’m very happy to see IGIC creating awareness about international corporation, especially in this region which is the leader in advanced mega projects. The conference is bringing together experts from all around the world, and I’m here to support the cause.

One major aspect of this conference is that you have multiple perspectives; you have people who are practitioners, people from institutions, and academia, which I believe is extremely beneficial for young engineers and students.

I was thrilled to attend the IGIC 2024 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The enthusiasm among participants for knowledge exchange, networking, collaboration opportunities, and innovations in geotechnical engineering was palpable. I gained valuable insights into the booming construction industry and mega projects in the region and the use of innovative technologies around the world. This conference successfully achieved its important goal by providing an excellent platform for professionals in the field.

IGIC is an exceptional event, packed with much knowledge and outstanding speakers, offering a unique balance between academic research and industrial applications. The conference provided an excellent opportunity to Geotechnical Contractors, Soil Laboratories, Geotechnical Consultants, Developers, Universities, Geotechnical Engineering Researchers and Government Authorities to catch the latest research and innovative geotechnical solutions by promoting communication between scientists and thought leaders from both academic and industrial backgrounds. In short: a compact platform offering insights into latest trends and innovations in the industry.

IGIC 2024, held in Jeddah, was a groundbreaking event that showcased an unprecedented fusion of East and West, academia and industry, as well as a dynamic interplay among geotechnical contractors, laboratories, consultants, and solution providers. Bridging generations, it connected students with professors, and peers with mentors, reflecting its inclusive and collaborative spirit. The conference covered a vast array of topics, from pioneering case studies such as the Jeddah Tower, India's longest offshore bridge, to Bahrain’s world's largest micropiled PT rafts. It also highlighted cutting-edge technologies like AI, ML, remote sensing, digital twinning, energy piles, and innovative ground improvement methods. Enhanced by invaluable workshops on the most utilized software and tools in geotechnical design.   IGIC 2024 proved to be a hub for suppliers, clients, and collaborators. With attendance surpassing 500, and expectations for growth in future editions, IGIC firmly stands as the premier international geotechnical event, keeping the Gulf and MENA region's geotechnical community thoroughly interconnected and advancing.

We found the event to be an exceptional platform for sharing our geotechnical innovations. The conference provided invaluable opportunities for us to engage with industry leaders, explore cutting-edge advancements, and foster meaningful collaborations. We are proud to have supported such a dynamic and enriching event and look forward to future engagements with IGIC.

As an exhibitor, this was one of the best events we have attended globally in the last 35 years. Never before have we met so many clients in a single show. The organisers did a fantastic job of matching delegates to the exhibitors. Great job!

Attending IGIC 2024 in Saudi Arabia as sponsors and exhibitors was an exceptional experience. The conference featured high-quality sessions, insightful keynotes, and innovative solutions that greatly exceeded our expectations, providing an invaluable platform for knowledge exchange and networking as we expand our operations in Saudi Arabia.

Attending IGIC 2024 was a remarkable experience that delivered high-quality presentations, insightful keynotes, and valuable sessions. The exhibitors showcased innovative solutions, significantly contributing to the advancement of geotechnical engineering. Saudi Liebherr is excited to participate in IGIC 2025 and continue our journey of industry excellence.
