DOHA: Market experts from the GCC expounded on the region’s significant vision for digital transformation and drawing toward its sustainable goals by pointing out the need for diversifying the regional economies.
During the panel discussion on The Future of Economic Zones - Innovation and Opportunities,’’ at the Qatar Investment and Innovation Conference 2025: Investing in the Future, industry leaders came together to highlight the challenges, opportunities, and the role of infrastructure developments witnessed in the region.
Highlighting the significance of working towards Qatar National Vision 2030, Bader Al Madhadhi, Senior Associate at Qatar Free Zones Authority said “One of the main pillars of this region on attaining the economic diversification and digital transformation is the capability.”
The official emphasised that with six years in operation, QNV 2030 objectives also pose enormous opportunities with the state-of-the-art infrastructures and facilities in the country.
He also accentuated that Qatar is emerging as a leading hub for tech, innovation, and connectivity. “We have the facilities that can accommodate innovations and technologies. It’s not only about the vision, it’s about the ecosystem in Qatar. Since we are a small Qatar, interconnectivity between entities makes it easier to look into innovation, transformation, and awareness,” Al Madhadhi added.
