Details

Now in its sixth year, the conference has become a firm fixture in Qatar’s financial calendar. We continue to work with Qatar Central Bank, our official co-host, to deliver a fascinating insight into Qatar’s financial and economic development. We will have leading figures from the government outline their economic strategy. But not only that. This year we will explore the wider issues of global geopolitics, macroeconomics, capital deployment, cyber security and fintech. Our high calibre speakers will give participants actionable insight on today and tomorrow’s financial and geopolitical reality.
