We like to keep up with news and events in NEOM, Saudi Arabia and the surrounding area. Here are some of the news sites we read regularly.
TROJENA, one of several proposed NEOM zones, will be 50 kilometers from the Gulf of Aqaba and will comprise a ski community. The project is currently being built and should be finished by 2026. The area hopes to draw 700,000 tourists and 7,000 long-term inhabitants by 2030.
In early 2021, Saudi Arabia unveiled the Line, a 170-kilometer-long linear city, part of the NEOM project. NEOM has since expanded with proposals for the region, including a ski destination set to host the 2029 Asian Winter Games, a floating port city at OXAGON, and cliffside hotels at Leyja.
Saudi Arabia wants investors to know its ambitious NEOM development is on track. Its effort is called “Ground X” and is meant to show live feeds of construction sites, project deadlines, and a “progress library” for each zone of NEOM, including Sindalah, THE LINE and TROJENA. NEOM is looking for a “PMO Specialist” to join the Ground X team, which the job posting says is “responsible for delivering a mandate to document NEOM’s progress.”
