Argaam today launched the first episode of OnPoint, its new English-language business and economics podcast featuring in-depth conversations with leading CEOs, policymakers, investors and influential figures from Saudi Arabia, the region and beyond. The series aims to explore the ideas, trends and decisions shaping the future of business and the economy.
The debut episode features Abdulaziz Alomran, Founder CEO of Impact46, and one of the most prominent figures in Saudi Arabia’s investment and entrepreneurship ecosystem.
Alomran brings more than two decades of experience spanning entrepreneurship, angel investing, portfolio management, venture capital, public equities and capital markets.
Throughout his career, he has combined the perspectives of both operator and investor, playing a key role in the development of Saudi Arabia’s startup and investment landscape. He also serves on the boards of several companies, including Jahez, Rasan, and Emaar.
In the episode, Alomran shares his perspective on the evolution of Saudi Arabia’s investment and entrepreneurship sectors, the factors that have helped create a more attractive environment for startups and investors, and the key opportunities and challenges facing entrepreneurs and investors amid rapid economic transformation and the goals of Saudi Vision 2030.
The launch of OnPoint builds on Argaam’s role as a trusted source of financial and economic information, expanding beyond news, data and analysis to explore leadership perspectives and broader economic themes through candid, long-form conversations with the people driving change and shaping the future.
Through extended episodes, OnPoint aims to provide deeper insight into the forces behind Saudi Arabia’s transformation, offering viewers and listeners a richer understanding of the opportunities, challenges and decisions influencing the Kingdom’s economic and investment landscape as Vision 2030 continues to unfold.
The podcast targets a broad audience of investors, policymakers, executives and business professionals, as well as an international audience seeking a deeper understanding of Saudi Arabia’s economic transformation through direct conversations with those helping to shape it.
OnPoint is hosted by Somi Arian, a technology entrepreneur, researcher and artificial intelligence specialist whose international experience brings a global perspective to the discussions and helps connect Saudi Arabia’s transformation story with audiences around the world.
The launch reflects Argaam’s commitment to developing high-quality media platforms that combine credibility, depth and accessibility, while fostering informed dialogue on the economic and investment issues shaping both regional and global markets.
