Doha, Qatar: Qatar Investment and Innovation Conference is honoured to announce that the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT) has joined the upcoming edition “Driving GCC Entrepreneurial Growth” as Strategic Partner. This high-level forum, organised by The Business Year and Msheireb Properties is designed to foster dialogue between policymakers, investors, entrepreneurs, and innovators from across the Gulf region.

The partnership underscores MCIT’s commitment to advancing Qatar’s digital transformation, fostering innovation, and building a dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystem in line with the Third National Development Strategy, Qatar National Vision 2030, and Digital Agenda 2030. By focusing on emerging technologies, digital inclusion, and innovation-led growth, MCIT’s participation emphasises the vital role of public-private collaboration in shaping the region’s future as a knowledge-based economy.

In this regard, Faraj Jassim Abdulla, Director of the Digital Economy Department at MCIT, stated: “Through the Qatar Investment and Innovation Conference, MCIT aims to empower entrepreneurs and innovators across the GCC by providing a platform to connect, share ideas, and explore growth opportunities. This conference is an excellent example of how public-private partnerships can strengthen the digital economy, accelerate innovation, and position Qatar as a leader in innovation and sustainable economic transformation.”

The conference, scheduled for 3 November 2025 at Barahat Msheireb, will convene senior leaders from government, investment, and the private sector to explore opportunities in entrepreneurship, innovation, and digital transformation across the GCC. Msheireb Downtown Doha will provide a fitting venue for these regional stakeholders to engage in meaningful discussions on the role of entrepreneurship in driving economic growth, strategies for scaling start-ups, the evolving investment landscape, and the importance of public-private partnerships in strengthening global competitiveness.

The Qatar Investment and Innovation Conference has served as a meeting ground for investors, entrepreneurs, and policymakers to advance the GCC’s economic diversification goals.
