Gerhard commented: “One of the three main themes of Saudi Vision 2030 is the creation of ‘a vibrant society’ and Gensler has been chosen as the architecture firm for many projects, both giga and individual, which will make this goal a reality. Thanks to our firm’s borderless focus, I’ve already been collaborating with global teams on KSA projects and am very much looking forward to driving the business forward on the ground.”
