The strategic collaboration positions the Aramco Team Series as a leader in the sports world, offering unparalleled opportunities at the intersection of sports and business.
Recognising that a significant proportion of global golf fans hold senior management and leadership positions in the corporate sector, the Aramco Team Series has joined forces with FII Institute to elevate the tournament to new heights.

It is focused on four key areas wherein it catalyses multiple initiatives, investments, and publications: Artificial Intelligence & Robotics, Education, Healthcare and Sustainability. Over the past three years, the Institute has hosted more than 13 conferences and international summits.
The Public Investment Fund (PIF) also extended its presenting partnership of the Aramco Team Series, reaffirming its steadfast commitment to the growth and advancement of women’s golf.
The first edition of the Aramco Team Series presented by PIF and the new strategic partnership with FII Institute will launch in Riyadh later this year. Throughout the week, business leaders can look forward to engaging activities such as city-based seminars exploring topics and investment opportunities around key Aramco Team Series founding pillars of finance, industrial development, sustainability, tourism, innovation, and growing women’s sports.
