Samsung Electronics Vice Chairman Lee Jae-yong has met with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia during his visit to the Middle Eastern nation to discuss business opportunities, according to local news reports Sept. 18.

“During the meeting, they discussed investment opportunities in the Kingdom in the fields of technology, industry, construction, energy, smart cities and great opportunities for cooperation between the Kingdom and Samsung Group,” the state-run news agency said.
The meeting took place nearly three months after Lee and the prince met in Seoul in late June to discuss ways to step up collaboration in various fields, including 5G technology.
