Overview

Qatar is an emerging powerhouse in the Middle East. The Qatari startup ecosystem, while fairly young, is growing at an accelerated pace today. Today, Qatar is preparing for a post-petrochemical economy and is working towards blending the spirit of Silicon Valley with its own set of characteristics in the region. A number of stakeholders coexist in the region today that are working towards the development of the startup ecosystem. Many public sector as well as private sectors are playing a key role in positioning Qatar as a preferred destination for international startups looking to enter the Middle East. These stakeholders have developed platforms to equip entrepreneurs with resources such as information and funds. Additionally, they have initiated multiple programs to educate these aspiring entrepreneurs about the different possibilities for market linkages as well as opportunities to connect with procurement clients.
