Discussion 4: NEOM… will it work?

Question

The Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman (MBS) has announced the construction of the multi-billion dollar future city that will run through the Arabian Desert. This city is rumored to be state-of-the-art and creatively designed to be welcoming of all and sustainable. 

Please read their website and then do a little research on MBS, just to see if what you learned about him matches the vision for the city. 

Use this link: https://www.neom.com/en-us (Links to an external site.)

In your Discussion Forum 5, please write a two paragraph summary answering these questions:

1) What is NEOM?

2) Describe the city’s vision for the future. What are some proposed features (social, infrastructural, water resources)? 

3) Is MBS the right face of this new city vision NEOM presents? Why or why not? 

No responses to other students required.
