The event, held under the patronage of HE the Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sheikh Abdullah bin Nasser bin Khalifa al-Thani, will take place on March 7 and 8 in Doha.
Organised by Qatar University, in collaboration with Interactive Business Network, the forum aims to foster a generation of young entrepreneurs who have the knowledge and business skills to take advantage of opportunities in the future.
“As Qatar’s primary incubator for technology development, our support for the third Entrepreneurship in Economic Development Forum reflects our commitment to promoting innovation and entrepreneurship in line with the Qatar National Research Strategy,” said Hamad al-Kuwari, QSTP managing director.
“Entrepreneurship plays a major role in shaping and developing a knowledge-based economy, which aligns with our priorities at QSTP to transform Qatar into a regional hub for technology innovation by constantly growing and strengthening our support for talented entrepreneurs,” al-Kuwari added.
The forum is expected to attract wide interest and participation from officials and policy makers as well as major public and private institutions involved in education and youth development, in addition to business leaders, banks and specialised financial institutions.
Participants will discuss the prevailing entrepreneurial culture in Qatar and the wider Gulf region, proposing a specific plan of action to instil a culture of entrepreneurship in the various institutions participating in the forum.
A further endeavour is to promote mainstream entrepreneurship in the education system in order to build and support potential young entrepreneurs.
