Qatar’s Digital Innovation Profile (DIP) has officially been launched by the Communications Regulatory Authority (CRA) in partnership with the International Telecommunications Union (ITU).
The initiative aims to comprehensively analyze Qatar’s digital innovation ecosystem to formulate key strategies and national policies to accelerate the country’s digital transformation.
The CRA has actively engaged stakeholders to ensure an accurate and thorough assessment of the country’s maturity in innovation and entrepreneurship. As part of the collaborative effort, representatives from various sectors have also participated in co-creation workshops, which aim to identify strengths, address gaps, analyze needs, and develop detailed recommendations for accelerating Qatar’s digital economy.
