BIE Day at Expo 2025 Osaka Kansai Marks the Transition Toward Riyadh 2030

Osaka, October 12, 2025 —
As Expo 2025 Osaka Kansai draws to a close, the celebration of BIE Day marked more than the conclusion of a world event — it symbolised the start of a new global chapter, one that leads directly to World Expo 2030 Riyadh.

For Nuwa Partners, this moment represents a clear line of continuity: from Japan’s innovation-driven Expo to Saudi Arabia’s transformation-driven Expo. It is a bridge between two visions of progress — one focused on designing the future society for our lives, and the other on designing the future for humanity’s next generation.

A Celebration of Global Collaboration — and What Comes Next

BIE Day brought together representatives from over 150 nations under one roof to celebrate the Bureau International des Expositions (BIE) and the enduring spirit of collaboration that defines every World Expo.
Japanese Minister for the World Expo Yoshitaka Ito captured this perfectly:

“Diverse cultures from around the world have gathered in one place… I am convinced this Expo has served as a roadmap for overcoming global fragmentation.”

That roadmap now points toward Riyadh.

As Alain Berger, President of the BIE General Assembly, reminded the audience:

“Expos reaffirm the foundations of global dialogue — education, innovation, and international cooperation — values more necessary than ever.”

These same principles are at the heart of Nuwa Partners’ mission: helping global businesses, investors, and innovators build meaningful partnerships within Saudi Arabia’s dynamic Vision 2030 economy.

Opportunity: From Inspiration to Implementation

While Osaka has been a showcase of creativity and culture, Riyadh 2030 will be defined by delivery and investment. For Nuwa’s clients — from family offices to international corporations — the shift from concept to capital begins now.

World Expo 2030 Riyadh will attract billions in foreign investment, global talent, and sustainable development partnerships. Nuwa Partners is uniquely positioned to guide clients through this next phase — connecting Expo-inspired enterprises with Saudi capital, and helping investors access world-class projects born from the Expo ecosystem.

As Dimitri S. Kerkentzes, Secretary General of the BIE, declared:

“During times of turbulence, Expo 2025 Osaka Kansai has been a beacon of all that is wonderful in the world. After Osaka, we look forward to Expo 2030 in Riyadh.”

For Nuwa Partners, that light is now shining on the Kingdom — where a decade of preparation, investment, and innovation will converge in 2030 to redefine what a World Expo can achieve.

Why This Matters for Nuwa Partners and Our Clients

  • For international brands and investors: the countdown to Expo 2030 Riyadh is the moment to build early strategic presence and partnerships in the Kingdom.

  • For Saudi entities: it’s an opportunity to attract world-class innovation, creative industries, and global collaboration aligned with Vision 2030.

  • For Nuwa Partners: it cements our role as the gateway between worlds — connecting global ambition with Saudi Arabia’s transformative agenda.

As the BIE Day performances from Japan, Serbia, and Saudi Arabia symbolised — the story of Expos is one of continuity, creativity, and cooperation. From Osaka’s grand finale to Riyadh’s grand beginning, Nuwa Partners stands ready to translate inspiration into opportunity.
