Doha, Qatar 2024
The 2024 annual Conference will be hosted by Qatar Financial Centre, in Doha, Qatar. The conference will be held from Sunday 3rd to Thursday 7th November 2024.
“Innovative Registries – Business Enablers of the Future”
The theme for the Corporate Registers Forum 2024 (CRF 2024) Qatar is inspired by the Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) as a leading onshore business and financial centre, and sets the stage for this year’s CRF conference.
It highlights the pivotal role of registries in facilitating business growth and development amidst evolving economic and technological landscapes and revolves around Qatar’s vision for a sustainable, diversified economy as stipulated in the Qatar National Vision 2030, and as further articulated in the National Development Strategies.
This type of innovation leverages research and development for the creation of products or services that can be new to an organization, market or world. It can involve the development of new knowledge or technology, or adaptation of existing technology in novel ways to ultimately provide a positive economic and societal impact.
Qatar places the business sector, comprised of large local enterprises, multinational corporations (MNCs), start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as the primary driver of R&D-based innovation.
Government entities also play a key role, as enablers of business sector activity, as potential buyers of innovative products and services, and as innovators, translating research outputs into policy reforms that benefit the nation.
Overall, as highlighted by the Qatar National Vision 2030, Qatar’s objective is to drive its business sector toward lending greater focus in the area of innovation and value creation through new or significantly improved R&D-based products or services, or, in the case of government, research-based policies to meet end-user needs.
Qatar aims to promote its role as a global leader in innovation and scientific research and to diversify the country’s economy.
CRF 2024 promises networking opportunities and actionable steps towards shaping the future of corporate governance and business facilitation.
