About the programme
Saudi Privatization Foundations provides a structured introduction to privatisation and public-private partnerships in Saudi Arabia. It connects the legal framework to the project, its participants and the contractual relationships governing delivery, helping practitioners understand their role within the project.
What does the programme cover?
- Concepts of privatisation and public-private partnerships.
- The Saudi framework and the institutions and roles involved in a project.
- Identifying, prioritising and assessing projects and preparing feasibility documents.
- Partnership and ownership transfer, procurement, award, and financial and commercial close.
- Contract management, governance throughout its stages and practical applications.
Foundation teaching and practical discussion connect the concepts with project teams’ work. The programme draws on THAT’s privatisation practice and its partnership with Al-Burhan Law Firm at Khaskhasa Centre.
