The event, held at the National Museum of Qatar Auditorium in Doha, Qatar, brought together some of the industry’s most influential leaders and innovators to share their insights and visions for the future.

The event commenced with the President of Engineers Australia Qatar Chapter Asif Rahmany, opening the evening and introducing the Master of Ceremony, Rukhsana Khan, whose dynamic presence set the tone for an evening of engaging and thought-provoking discussions.
