Sponsorship of Companies in Qatar
Following the 2022 FIFA World Cup, Qatar has accelerated its shift toward a diversified, private-sector-driven economy. Major investments in tourism, infrastructure, financial services, and logistics have expanded the country’s economic opportunities, reducing reliance on hydrocarbons. Government initiatives, such as easing foreign ownership restrictions, creating free zones, and improving legal frameworks, have made Qatar an attractive destination for international businesses seeking regional expansion. The Third National Development Strategy (2024-2030) reinforces this direction, promoting economic sustainability through private-sector growth and new trade partnerships​
