About the event
What is Biban?
Biban is organised by Monsha'at, Saudi Arabia's Small and Medium Enterprises General Authority, and is the Kingdom's main gathering for entrepreneurs. The forum combines an exhibition with panels, workshops, pitching, funding programmes and deal signings. Government agencies, banks, venture capital funds, accelerators and corporate partners use it to present support schemes and to meet founders. Recent editions have been held each November at Riyadh Front.
Biban 2025 ran from 5 to 8 November 2025, with organisers expecting more than 140,000 visitors from over 150 countries. The 2026 dates had not been officially published at the time of writing. For sponsors and exhibitors, content showing signings, pitches and stand activity helps them reach the start-up community, which follows the event closely on social media.
