Under the patronage of His Excellency the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim al-Thani, Qatar University (QU) launched the 8th International Conference on Entrepreneurship for Sustainability and Impact (ESI 2025), organised by the College of Business and Economics under the theme "Frontier Technologies for Resilient Economies." The opening ceremony was attended by His Excellency Minister of Commerce and Industry, Sheikh Faisal bin Thani bin Faisal al-Thani, and His Excellency President of QU, Dr.- Omar Mohammed al-Ansari, along with a distinguished group of senior officials and international experts.Recognised as one of the region’s leading academic gatherings, ESI 2025 convenes over 600 scholars, researchers, policymakers, and business leaders from more than 50 countries to explore how emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, blockchain, the Internet of Things, quantum computing, robotics, and advanced data analytics are shaping the future of business, entrepreneurship, and sustainability.In her keynote remarks, Prof Rana Sobh, Dean of the College of Business and Economics and Conference Chair, emphasised the urgency of fostering innovation and adaptability in a world defined by rapid technological disruption and global uncertainty."Resilience is not the absence of crisis-it is the ability to evolve through it. The technologies we discuss here - AI, quantum computing, blockchain, and others-are not just tools of efficiency; they are catalysts for imagination and progress. Yet, their success depends on people-their creativity, wisdom, and courage to act responsibly. ESI 2025 is a forum for shaping that collective vision: to build economies that are strong, inclusive, and forward-looking," she stated.The Business Consortium, a distinguished feature of ESI 2025, brought together policymakers, entrepreneurs, and executives from across sectors to discuss Fintech and Financial Transformation, Government Institutional Excellence in the Era of Innovative Technology, Technology for Climate and Sustainability, and AI in Education and Humanitarian Affairs.In his remarks, Dr Mohammed El Gammal, Chair of the ESI 2025 Organising Committee from QU, highlighted the continued success and growing global participation of the conference. "The International Conference on Entrepreneurship for Sustainability and Impact is now in its eighth consecutive year, and this edition has attracted over 650 research papers from around the world." Dr Jim Adams, a former deputy chief technologist at Nasa, gave the opening keynote address. He shared insights from his extensive global experience in space technology and innovation, emphasising that the true impact of technology lies in our ability to empower people to use it effectively.The conference also featured Dr. Sui Sui (Toronto Metropolitan University, Canada), Dr. Khaled Hussainey (Bangor Business School, UK), Dr. Adel Ben Youssef (Université Côte d’Azur, France), and Dr. Arman Eshraghi (Cardiff Business School, UK), among other leading academics who addressed digital entrepreneurship, sustainable finance, circular economy strategies, and global supply-chain resilience.Dr. Amna Al Ansari, Director of the Strategic Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Economic Development Office at QU, highlighted the university’s growing role in cultivating innovation among students and researchers. "Through its innovation and entrepreneurship framework, QU ensures that creative ideas are not confined to classrooms-they are transformed into startups, social enterprises, and technologies with real impact. Student-led innovations, such as assistive technologies for the deaf and visually impaired, are prime examples of how research at QU is making a tangible contribution to national development and global knowledge." In parallel sessions, participants presented over 90 peer-reviewed research papers across 17 thematic tracks, addressing subjects ranging from digital transformation and smart cities to circular economy and climate adaptation. The Meet the Editors forum allowed early-career researchers to engage with editors from leading international journals, while the PhD Symposium offered doctoral candidates mentorship and feedback from senior scholars.The conference concluded with a Women Entrepreneurs Forum, celebrating female innovators and researchers who are advancing inclusive economic development in the region.

The Ministry of Social Development and Family (MSDF) participated in a high-level international event held on Tuesday under the theme "Digital Pathways Towards Regulating the Social and Solidarity Economy," as part of the activities of the Second World Summit for Social Development. Representatives from several Arab and international organizations were also in attendance.In his address, Assistant Undersecretary for Social Development Affairs, Fahad bin Mohammed Al Khayarin, emphasized that an economy combining family solidarity, social development, and digital transformation embodies the core vision of Qatar.He noted that global experience has proven that the government sector alone cannot meet all developmental needs.He added that the social and solidarity economy, as a strategic approach, promotes social development and equal opportunities. He explained that the State of Qatar places great importance on empowering vulnerable groups by creating decent job opportunities for youth, women, and people with disabilities, and by supporting productive family projects and transforming them into organized economic entities.This contributes to strengthening family and community cohesion and providing a sustainable social and economic safety net.The two options highlighted the importance of utilizing digital tools to organize productive families by building digital platforms that enable registration, market access, and efficient and transparent management of financial operations.This includes facilitating smart financing and equitable access to accessible financial solutions that support the growth of small businesses and open up opportunities for cross-border trade.He emphasized the necessity of building the digital capacities of those working in the social sector, particularly young people, and empowering them with the skills needed to use modern technologies and transform their ideas into innovative projects that support the national economy.He pointed out that the family represents the nurturing and driving environment for the social economy, and that small businesses often originate within homes and rely on family solidarity.He affirmed that the success of these projects means empowering the entire family and strengthening its vital role in achieving sustainable development.Assistant Undersecretary for Social Development Affairs at the Ministry of Social Development and Family, Fahad bin Mohammed Al Khayarin, affirmed the State of Qatar's commitment to continuing regional and international efforts to accelerate the transition towards a social and solidarity economy and enhance the integration of social and economic policies.

The Qatar Motor and Motorcycle Federation (QMMF) has put the finishing touches to this weekend’s Qatar International Baja and competitors have now set up their equipment in the expansive Baja service park, adjacent to the Lusail International Circuit, north of Doha.Forty-three cars, 54 motorcycles and four quads are expected to tackle the penultimate rounds of the FIA World and Middle East Baja Cups and the FIM Bajas World Cup.Rally officials have also made minor tweaks to the route in the days building up to the event. The Prologue to determine the starting order for the first stage will now run for 10.59km Thursday afternoon. This precedes a slightly revised opening stage of 220.31km on Friday and the final run through the dunes of southern Qatar on Saturday that has been slightly lengthened to 234.19km.Five-time Dakar Rally winner Nasser Saleh al-Attiyah proved last December that it is possible to beat the Ultimate category cars and take an outright victory in a round of the FIA World Baja Cup (he and Pablo Moreno won the Dubai round in a Taurus T3 Max) in a Challenger class machine.The Qatari has a busy weekend ahead offering support vehicles to the QMMF Team. As he explained in the service park Tuesday: “We tried hard in Dubai last year and we won. It was really nice. Now, we have made a lot of development with the car (Taurus) in South Africa also. We have worked on the cooling and the power of the engine.”He added: “It is very nice to have the Nasser Racing and QMMF teams for our region and to help the people. It is amazing. We try to improve every time. It’s also a good chance for me to keep focused before the Dakar with Dacia. That’s another reason we are here. I am also with Fabian (Lurquin), my co-driver for Dakar, and we are here to learn more together. I didn’t want to miss this race.”One of the entrants in the SSV category at the wheel of an RX-Sport-supplied Can-Am Maverick XRS Turbo RR is Nora Al-Jassasi. The first Emirati female to be licenced by the FIA as a driver is teaming up with navigator Egor Okhotnikov. After starting out in equestrian endurance racing, Nora switched to motorcycling and has also taken part in the Jameel Rally in Saudi Arabia on a couple of occasions.“I’m excited to be a part of the Qatar Baja,” said Nora. “I know Qatar’s terrain will be challenging but that’s what pushes you to improve. I will also compete in Dubai as preparation for the 2026 FIA Middle East Baja Cup. I took part in the Abu Dhabi Baja Challenge at the end of October and was third in T4 and second in the Ladies Cup.”Rashid al-Ketbi is a former rally driver himself and would often give Mohammed Ben Sulayem and Abdullah Bakhashab a run for their money on rounds of the FIA Middle East Rally Championship. He is now running Dubai-based RX-Sport and overseeing the exploits of Oman’s Hamed al-Wahaibi in this year’s FIA World Baja Cup.Al-Wahaibi is currently tied third in the SSV standings with Briton Paul Severn and behind runaway series leader Mitchel van den Brink and Italy’s Amerigo Ventura. Al-Ketbi said: “I am very excited to be here and to see so many old friends again. We have been managing Hamed all season in the World Championship and we are aiming for the podium. We reach a certain time in our motorsport careers as we get older and we decide to support each other as best we can. It is becoming a motorsport family more than just a motorsport challenge.”Al-Attiyah’s brother Khalifa Saleh is in pole position to win the FIA Middle East Baja Cup outright. The QMMF Team Taurus driver takes an 11-point lead over Saudi Arabia’s Dania Akeel into the weekend in the overall Drivers’ Championship. He leads team-mate Abdulaziz al-Kuwari by 32 points in the SSV standings. “I need to be cautious, not take risks, find a fast pace and make sure that I score points,” said Khalifa Saleh.Rival Akeel kept in match practice last weekend by finishing second overall at the Qassim Rally in Saudi Arabia. She will run an Overdrive Racing Toyota Hilux this weekend.Last year, Akeel was on the verge of history by becoming the first woman ever to win a Baja-type event in the Middle East. She led at the start of the final stage in Qatar and then stopped shortly before the finish with a broken steering arm. Desperate emergency repairs enabled her to reach the finish in fifth place.Juan Cruz Yacopini arrives in Doha trying to defend a 22-point lead in the Drivers’ Championship in the FIA World Bajas Cup. The Argentine’s closest rival is Czech veteran Miroslav Zapletal. Yacopini has only scored points on four rounds so far this year. He finished second to Yazeed al-Rajhi at the Saudi Baja and scored maximum points in Jordan, Italy and Spain.Mohammed al-Balooshi starts as the favourite in the FIM Bajas World Cup category and is also the leader of the local Qatar Baja series. Michael Anderson has a growing reputation in the area for his speed, while this year’s Saudi Baja winner Alex McInnes has changed the engine on his bike in the bivouac after last weekend’s Qassim Rally.Both Barry Howe and Hamdan al-Ali will be absent from the start list because of injury but Qatari riders Mohammed al-Kubaisi and Abdulrahman al-Sheeb will be raring to go. Meanwhile, Briton Ben Harvey-Grounds will line-up full of confidence after his win on a Kove in the prestigious 24-hour Dawn to Dusk Enduro in Wales.On Wednesday, competitors go through their administration and scrutineering checks at the Lusail International Circuit before a dozen of the leading drivers and riders attend the pre-event press conference in the circuit’s media centre 6pm.
