At the Future Summit 2025 by MediaOne conducted in Dammam and Riyadh on 21st and 22nd September respectively, Ethicfin stood out as a key partner and contributor by means of thought leadership and sparking meaningful dialogue on the digital transformation of fintech and accounting. The prestigious event was graced by Chief Guest His Highness Hussain S. Al Shammari, Director at the Ministry of Media, along with several prominent dignitaries, industry experts, and innovators from across the world. Their presence underscored the summit’s importance as a global platform for shaping the future of finance and technology.

One of the highlights of the summit was an impactful session led by Mr. Nadeer VK, CO–founder and CEO of Ethicfin, a session titled “ZATCA and the Future of Intelligent Accounting.”

In his session, Nadeer explained the integration of ZATCA with today’s evolving financial systems, describing how it represents much more than a taxation mechanism. He emphasized that ZATCA’s digital framework is reshaping the financial landscape by implementing transparency, efficiency, and a clear purpose across multiple sectors.

“ZATCA shouldn’t be bypassed as a taxation system,” Nadeer remarked. “We should see the opportunities for development.” He called on businesses and individuals alike to voluntarily become part of the system, noting that collective participation would accelerate progress and shared economic growth.

Nadeer also highlighted how ZATCA’s policies are both investor-friendly and SME-supportive, creating an inclusive ecosystem that empowers small businesses through simplified compliance and data-driven insights. For investors, the system offers clarity and trust—vital factors in today’s competitive market. Expanding his vision beyond taxation, Nadeer discussed the growing fintech momentum, pointing out that it can be utilised to build a business ecosystem. By integrating fintech innovation with regulatory advancements like ZATCA, he suggested, businesses can unlock new avenues for growth, efficiency, and intelligent decision-making.

The session was a breakthrough event at the summit, bringing together industry leaders and innovators under one vision: technology, collaboration and to redefine the future of intelligent accounting.

With Ethicfin’s leadership and MediaOne’s platform, Future Summit 2025 set a strong precedent for how forward-thinking dialogue can inspire sustainable transformation in the financial sector.
