QNB has extended its support to the “International Conference on Access to Financing SMEs and Entrepreneurs in the Arab World” as the event’s Gold sponsor.
The two-day conference, which was organised by Qatar University’s College of Business and Economics, witnessed a large number of participants and attendees from many countries across the world.
The conference was aimed at encouraging academics, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to disseminate and exchange knowledge about the use of global benchmarking indicators of the business environment in the Arab world.
The participants also looked at better alternatives to articulate the positive impact of efforts and initiatives aimed at developing small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the private sector, and economies of the Arab world.
As the largest financial institution in Qatar, QNB said it has always designed innovative and state-of-the-art solutions to support and develop SMEs in the country.
