Doha, Qatar: Qatar Tourism hosted the second edition of QT Awards Alumni Network gathering on Sunday, bringing together winners from all editions of the Qatar Tourism Awards, alongside sector stakeholders.

Held during Ghabga in the holy month of Ramadan, the gathering strengthened sector engagement and collaboration, reinforcing Qatar Tourism’s commitment to sustaining excellence beyond the awards cycle through long-term partnerships and knowledge exchange.

During the event, Chairman of Qatar Tourism H E Saad bin Ali Al-Kharji said: “Since the launch of the Qatar Tourism Awards in 2023, the programme has served as a leading national platform to recognise excellence. It has elevated standards of quality, innovation and leadership. It has also supported the development of sustainable tourism services and experiences across the State. Through the Alumni Network, Qatar Tourism continues to build a community of leaders who exchange knowledge, share best practices and open new horizons for growth. This approach reflects our firm belief that the success of the sector depends on collaboration and integration across the entire tourism ecosystem.”

In his remarks, Chief of Tourism Development Sector at Qatar Tourism Omar Abdulrahman Al Jaber said:“The Qatar Tourism Awards were established to ensure that excellence does not end at recognition. Through the Alumni Network, we are converting achievement into sustained sector impact by enabling collaboration, strengthening service standards and encouraging innovation across our tourism ecosystem. As we prepare for the 4th edition, our focus remains on enhancing the Awards framework and reinforcing our alumni’s role as ambassadors of excellence within Qatar’s evolving tourism landscape.”

Since its launch in 2023, the Qatar Tourism Awards has delivered three successful editions, recognising 127 winners. As the programme approaches its 4th Edition in 2026, Qatar Tourism continues to expand the Awards ecosystem through initiatives including the enhanced QT Awards Portal, the Guidebook, the Magazine, and dedicated digital platforms, reinforcing transparency, accessibility and sector-wide engagement.
