Saudi investment summit moving ahead with updated program: spokesman

CAIRO (Reuters) - A Saudi investment conference will go ahead later this month with an updated program that includes heads of state from Arab world, Africa and Asia, a conference spokesperson said on Friday.

A string of Western executives have pulled out of Riyadh's Future Investment Initiative conference in the wake of the disappearance of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
