French investments are increasingly directed towards the Saudi market, with expansion into new strategic sectors such as artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, culture, creative industries, and mining, in addition to traditional sectors like energy and industry. Manufacturing industries account for approximately 60% of France's investment balance in Saudi Arabia, which amounted to around €16.3 billion in 2024, distributed across 651 licenses in 18 sectors. Saudi Arabia's stable environment and large market provide extensive opportunities for French companies, and growing economic cooperation is bolstered by agreements such as the strategic partnership and the establishment of a joint council, with bilateral trade increasing by 7.2% in 2025. The Kingdom is also witnessing expansion in the energy sector, with French alliances contributing to solar projects with a capacity of up to 11 gigawatts, alongside increased investment in manufacturing, tourism, and infrastructure sectors, reflecting France's ongoing reinvestment and expanding presence in Saudi Arabia.
