Monaco welcomes 27 Qatari business leaders for economic talks

Monaco welcomed a delegation of 27 Qatari business leaders on Monday, October 12, for discussions aimed at strengthening economic ties between the Principality and Qatar.

Organised by Invest Monaco, the meeting took place at the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort, bringing together representatives of Monaco’s economic community and senior figures from Qatar to explore business opportunities and potential areas of cooperation.

The delegation was led by H.E. Sheikh Ali bin Jassim Al-Thani, Qatar’s Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to Monaco, and H.E. Sheikh Khalifa bin Jassim Al-Thani, President of Qatar Chamber, the country’s national chamber of commerce.

Discussions focused on several sectors of shared economic interest, including yachting, luxury hotels and hospitality, finance, innovation, real estate and construction. The meeting provided an opportunity for representatives from both sides to present the opportunities available in their respective markets and establish contacts for potential future partnerships.

The visit also included a meeting with Monaco’s Minister of State, Christophe Mirmand, who received the Qatari delegation at his official residence ahead of the economic gathering.

The initiative reflects Monaco’s continued efforts to develop international business relationships and connect local companies with overseas markets. Qatar, meanwhile, offers opportunities for cooperation across several of the sectors represented at the meeting, particularly luxury services, investment and real estate.
