ZURICH—The chief executives of ABB and Siemens are traveling to Saudi Arabia to attend a supplier conference, just weeks after they pulled out of an investment event in the country following the death of a journalist.

ABB CEO Ulrich Spiesshofer and Joe Kaeser from Siemens will travel to Dammam for an event organized by Saudi Aramco called In-Kingdom Total Value Add (IKTVA) which is due to take place on Nov. 26-27.
