Aramco Europe brought together senior industry leaders, policymakers, and manufacturers in Poland this week for an exclusive supplier meeting.
Hosted in collaboration with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Katowice, the event marked the latest engagement with European companies as part of an ongoing program aimed at sharing emerging business opportunities with new and existing suppliers.
Mazin Dabbagh, President & CEO of Aramco Europe, said: “Our meeting in Poland reflects both the progress we’re making with our partners in this important market as well as our broader commitment to building strong, lasting relationships with stakeholders across Europe.”
“It follows other successful gatherings over the course of the last year with companies from countries including the Netherlands and Czech Republic, which combined practical guidance on doing business with Aramco, with an overview of the broader investment landscape.”
Opening the event, representatives from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry welcomed delegates and highlighted Poland’s competitive industrial base and strategic position in the heart of Europe.
Throughout the day, participants gained detailed insights into Aramco’s expanding global investment program and the evolving sourcing needs driven by large‑scale upstream, downstream, and infrastructure projects.
Presentations from Aramco Europe experts covered projects business opportunities, service and material supplier registration and prequalification, and quality qualification and performance management requirements. These briefings provided practical guidance on how international suppliers can position themselves to work with one of the world’s leading energy and chemicals companies.
A key focus of the agenda was Aramco’s In‑Kingdom Total Value Add (iktva) program, which aims to drive domestic value creation, supply chain localization, and long‑term economic diversification in Saudi Arabia. Speakers outlined how international suppliers can participate by investing in local capabilities, technology transfer, and workforce development aligned with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 objectives.
The event also featured updates on the broader investment landscape in the Kingdom and the expanding opportunities for foreign companies across energy, industry, and advanced manufacturing sectors.
The afternoon was dedicated to structured B2B meetings, allowing Polish companies to engage directly with Aramco Europe specialists to discuss specific opportunities and requirements. Organizers emphasized that face‑to‑face engagement remains a critical step in building trusted, long‑term supply chain partnerships.
By convening this event in Katowice, Aramco Europe signaled its intention to build durable relationships with Polish suppliers and to continue expanding its global supply network in response to ongoing investment and market growth.
