 Ghaia Investment Holding and Chicago Global have announced their first-ever participation at Money20/20 Middle East, where they will showcase how artificial intelligence is transforming institutional investment decision-making and supporting the continued evolution of Saudi Arabia’s financial sector.

Taking place from 14–16 September 2026 at the Riyadh Exhibition & Convention Center in Malham, Saudi Arabia, Money20/20 Middle East brings together leaders from across financial services, fintech, investment and payments. Through thought-leadership engagements and live technology demonstrations, Ghaia Investment Holding and Chicago Global will explore how rapidly evolving global markets, increasingly complex investment environments, and advances in AI are reshaping the way institutions approach investment decisions.

A central focus of the companies’ presence at Money20/20 will be Parallax, Chicago Global’s AI-powered investment intelligence platform, introduced to the Saudi market earlier this year in partnership with Ghaia Investment Holding. Developed to address the growing complexity of institutional investment decision-making, Parallax integrates market data, research, factor signals, scenario analysis and portfolio context within a structured decision-making layer. By bringing these inputs together, the platform enables institutions to move beyond fragmented analysis towards a more disciplined, transparent and fully auditable investment process.

Alwaleed Alshuwaier, Director of Corporate Affairs at Ghaia Investment Holding, said “Our participation at Money20/20 reflects our commitment to introducing advanced technologies that support the development of Saudi Arabia’s financial sector. Through our partnership with Chicago Global, we are helping institutional investors access innovative AI-powered capabilities while maintaining the highest standards of governance and accountability.”

Ivan Chelebiev, Founder and CEO of Chicago Global, said: “Saudi Arabia’s commitment to AI innovation creates a significant opportunity for institutions to adopt more transparent and accountable investment decision-making. Through our partnership with Ghaia, we look forward to demonstrating how AI can strengthen governance and support better investment outcomes.”

He added: “Money20/20 provides an important platform to engage with financial institutions, investors and innovators from around the world, and demonstrate how AI-powered investment intelligence can help institutions navigate increasingly complex markets with greater discipline and transparency.”

The participation builds on the strategic partnership between Ghaia Investment Holding and Chicago Global, driven by a shared commitment to advancing AI-powered investment intelligence while maintaining strong governance, transparency and accountability.

The partnership combines Chicago Global’s investment management and quantitative expertise with Ghaia’s deep understanding of the Saudi market, bringing advanced investment technology to meet the evolving needs of institutional investors in the Kingdom.

The collaboration comes as Saudi Arabia accelerates its AI ambitions. The Kingdom’s designation of 2026 as the Year of Artificial Intelligence reinforces this direction, supporting the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030 and the Financial Sector Development Program.

During Money20/20 Middle East, senior executives from Chicago Global will participate in dedicated sessions exploring how AI is reshaping capital markets across venture investing and corporate finance.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to experience Parallax firsthand through live demonstrations. Experts from Ghaia Investment Holding and Chicago Global will be available at their exhibition booth to discuss how AI-powered investment intelligence can support more informed, transparent, and accountable institutional decision-making.
