Largest MENA ecosystem. Shaped by Vision 2030 giga-project logic — PIF and NEOM at top centrality.
The urban modules matter more than the national envelope: 68.4 % of composition variance sits within countries (COTEE, H4). Live from Expert · pipeline 17 Aug 2026.
A country report does not add up a score. It reads the ecosystem as a cultivated order: the soil (rule enforcement) conditions what the seed (actors present) and the gardener (built support) can produce — then measures the meta-organization, gender inclusion and the AEEI pillars on the same grid.
Enforcement 0.43 (rules enforced); built support 28 %, base endowment 60 %; 22 % of actors created by the State or donors; 11 urban modules on 660 actors. Expected creation 4.0 new firms per 1,000 adults under the current, enforced regime: the soil already lets the seed and the gardener pay off.
Coverage CI 100 % (world 100 %); functional differentiation FDI 0.76 (world 0.87); service redundancy SRI 2.02 (world 2.01); VRIO coverage 0.20 (world 0.21); effectiveness EES 0.69 (world 0.72); network density 0.736. The report then applies the readings — resilience-adjusted redundancy, governance vs endowment, form vs substance, three-mechanism index — to Saudi Arabia.
AGI 59/100 (economic 52, social 84, representation 40), rank 86 / 176 globally; 7 women-focused structures out of 667 actors (10.5 ‰). Read next to the continental picture: mean 49, social dimension weakest (19/100), economic strongest (64/100).
The AEEI covers 54 African countries (30 ranked); where a country is outside its scope, the report documents the ten elements of Stam & van de Ven from the OSE base and open statistics instead.
