International Investment Gate to Showcase Uhud Vista, Its Madinah Real Estate Project, at Inaugural Saudi Pakistani Real Estate Exhibition in Lahore

Part of Saudi Pakistani Real Estate Exhibition (SPREX)

International Investment Gate (IIG), a Riyadh-headquartered, Shariah-compliant cross-border real estate investment and advisory firm, today confirmed its participation in the first Saudi Pakistani Real Estate Exhibition (SPREX), taking place 21–23 October 2026 at Lake City, Lahore. IIG will showcase Uhud Vista, its real estate project located in Madinah beside Mount Uhud, developed in partnership with Oluo Real Estate.

SPREX is organized by the Saudi Pakistani Business Council, chaired by HRH Prince Mansour bin Mohammed Al Saud and Mr. Fawad Mukhtar, in coordination with the Saudi Embassy in Pakistan, and with support from Pakistan's Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) and the Government of Punjab. The Chief Minister of Punjab, Maryam Nawaz Sharif, will attend as guest of honor. The exhibition builds on the deepening economic partnership between the two countries, which has included a strategic defence agreement and a $5 billion Saudi investment package announced in 2025.

The inaugural edition brings a Saudi delegation of 40 representatives from 10 real estate and investment firms, together with the General Authority for Real Estate (REGA), to meet an expected 5,000 visitors, including 1,000 qualified investors, over three days. IIG is one of ten Saudi entities taking part, alongside REGA and developers including Oluo Real Estate, Knowledge Economic City, Al Diyar Al Arabiya, and Bin Dawood Investment.

The exhibition follows Saudi Arabia's new law permitting non-Saudi ownership of real estate, in effect since January 2026, which restricts ownership in Makkah and Madinah to Muslim buyers — positioning Pakistan's Muslim population, including the world's largest Pakistani diaspora in Saudi Arabia, as a natural investor base. Pakistanis living abroad already hold an estimated $150 billion in overseas property, including more than $11 billion in Gulf residential real estate.
