As part of a long-term strategy to diversify away from dependency on hydrocarbons and move towards a more knowledge based economy, Qatar has placed considerable importance on education and training. Qatar's development of Lusail City (a new city north of the capital Doha) is part of a ten-year, £130bn plus infrastructure master plan. The new city aims to house 250,000 people and will have 35 new international schools. 
 
In partnership with British Embassy Doha, PWC and Clyde & Co., we are delighted to offer a free 60 minute webinar about Education Opportunities in Qatar.  This webinar will assist UK companies in learning more about education business opportunities, not just in Lusail City, but also in the rest of Qatar. It will provide:
 
  • background briefing on Qatar
  • an overview of projects and business opportunities associated with the education sector in Qatar
  • advice on doing business in Qatar, including legal issues and perspectives
  • information on how UKTI can assist UK companies
  • a platform to put questions to UKTI specialists and senior business people operating in the market
 
The webinar will be delivered on 30 September 2014 at 10.00-11.00 (UK time)
