Doha: The Qatari delegation, which brought together 51 organizations and 400 delegates, prepared 20 discussions, signed over 60 agreements during St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) 2021, which concluded on June 5.
During the four-day conference, the delegation held almost 250 business meetings in the field of trade and investment, education, science and technology, culture and sports.
The delegation of Qatar was one of the largest in the history of the country’s participation in international economic forums. This showed that Qatar attaches great importance to strengthening and developing interstate relations at various levels.
The official delegation of Qatar was represented by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Transport and Communications, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Trade and Industry, Investment Promotion Agency of Qatar, Qatar Development Bank, Qatar Financial Center, Qatar Free Zones Authority, Qatar National Bank, Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy, Hassad Food, Ooredoo, Qatar Petroleum, Qatar Airways and Doha Forum and many others.
On the territory of Pavilion G of the forum, on an area of 2000 square meters, Qatar recreated the atmosphere of a real Arab city with streets and a central square.
The entire pavilion was united by a large-scale suspended installation: a translucent structure made of ephemeral rattan mesh in the form of arcades, volumetric walls and eastern arches created an image that refers to the authentic architecture of Qatar.
The main business area of the Qatar Pavilion was divided into two parts. The first zone hosted the stands of Qatari companies while the second zone ‘Doha Hall’ served as a discussion platform for the development of investment and economic relations between Russia and Qatar.
The Qatar Pavilion program consisted of 20 panel discussions, dialogues, business breakfasts and round tables. 60 Qatari speakers took part in over 25 sessions of the SPIEF main program
