SUSRIS is a private sector effort and is not affiliated with any government entity. It is sponsored by the Saudi-US Trade Group in Washington, D.C.

The SUSRIS project began as the Saudi-American Forum in 2002 in an effort to produce authoritative information about the relationship between Saudi Arabia and the United States during a period when there were few quality sources of insights, perspectives and objectivity on the subject. Among those who inspired the project were a group of “expat” Americans who had lived and worked in the Kingdom and believed the American public deserved a truthful account of the importance and relevancy of the relationship.

Those efforts led to the Saudi-US Relations Information Service (SUSRIS), which was launched with the support of the Washington-based National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations (NCUSAR), a non profit, non partisan educational organization that seeks to inform Americans about the Arab and Islamic worlds, and its founding president and CEO Dr. John Duke Anthony.

Since its launch in 2003, the response to the SUSRIS project has been tremendous with monthly web site hits measured in the millions. Tens of thousands of interested readers have also signed up to receive the (free) SUSRIS e-newsletter. Moreover, SUSRIS is routinely cited by major international media as a news source.

SUSRIS works to provide information and resources that enable a clear assessment of this important relationship as well as contribute to a better understanding between the people of the United States and Saudi Arabia.

In 2011 SUSRIS introduced new online components and companion site relationships. You can find additional content of interest on www.SUSRISblog.com, www.SUSRISbiz.com and videos on www.SUSRIStube.com. Additional relevant materials are available on the YouTube.com and SlideShare.net web sites in the SUSRIS Channels of each. More related materials are on the SUSRIS companion web sites: www.SUSTG.org, www.ArabiaLink.com and www.SaudiBrit.com. SUSRIS is also available on Twitter (@saudius) and Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/saudius).

In 2012 SUSRIS expanded and improved content delivery with the inauguration of the SUSRIS iPhone App (“SUSRIS”), available in the iTunes App Store. It provides SUSRIS articles, interviews and special reports, Tweets, SUSTG News, maps and resources and much more.
