In a strategic collaboration, Media City Qatar (MCQ) and Bloomberg Media will host the fourth annual ‘Qatar Economic Forum, Powered by Bloomberg’ (QEF), slated to run from May 14 to 16, 2024.

Themed ‘A World Remade: Navigating the Year of Uncertainty,’ the forum is poised to convene 1,000+ global leaders to delve into critical economic issues shaping today’s landscape.

Against what is hailed as the most significant election year globally, the QEF emerges as a crucial platform for generating actionable solutions, strongly emphasising steering towards a sustainable economic future.

The agenda encompasses diverse topics, including ‘Geopolitics, Globalisation & Trade,’ ‘Business & Investment Outlook,’ ‘The Energy Transition,’ ‘Sports & Entertainment,’ and ‘Technology Innovation.’

Reflecting on the partnership’s significance and the forum’s role, Sheikh Dr Abdulla bin Ali Al Thani, Chairman of Media City Qatar, noted the media’s pivotal role in fostering economic, political, and social progress.

He underscored the forum’s mission to combat misinformation and promote global understanding through innovation and dialogue.

Since its inception in 2021, the partnership between Media City Qatar and Bloomberg Media has laid a solid foundation for driving meaningful conversations on economic trends, challenges, and opportunities.

Year after year, the forum has succeeded in igniting innovation and promoting international cooperation, as evidenced by signing numerous Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) and forming new alliances.

In 2023 alone, the QEF significantly contributed to introducing eight new MoUs, solidifying Qatar’s status as a vital hub for dialogue and investment and enhancing its influence in the global business ecosystem.

The Qatar Economic Forum 2024 is expected to attract representatives from over 50 countries, facilitating robust exchanges and dialogues among global leaders, innovators, and policymakers.

Media City Qatar views the upcoming forum as an indispensable opportunity for global media outlets and encourages their prompt registration to participate in and report on these pivotal discussions.

Media City Qatar is an emerging, collaborative global hub for media companies, entrepreneurs, innovators, and creative talent. Positioned as a regional leader in the media industry, MCQ contributes significantly to Qatar’s economic diversification by fostering a robust and innovative ecosystem where exceptional ideas and content thrive.
