Qatar Stock Exchange invites all family-owned and private companies in Qatar to participate in the Al-Nukhba Program and benefit from the global expertise shared through the initiative. This collaboration aims to develop the private sector in Qatar, thereby enhancing the competitiveness, growth, and sustainability of Qatari companies.

Abdulaziz Nasser Al-Emadi, Acting CEO of Qatar Stock Exchange, stated that the launch of the Al-Nukhba Program represents a strategic step towards empowering family-owned and private companies in Qatar to achieve sustainable growth and enhance their readiness for listing on the financial market.

He added, “The Al-Nukhba Program was designed and launched to assist family-owned and private companies in Qatar in their efforts to access financial markets. It is one of the most ambitious initiatives aligned with Qatar National Vision 2030 and the Third Financial Sector Strategy. These strategies emphasize the development of the Qatari capital market and increasing the private sector’s contribution to the national GDP as fundamental principles.”

This approach aims to increase the confidence of Qatari companies in accessing capital markets. The program also provides participating companies with the opportunity to benefit from the best professional expertise from a selection of renowned international and local consulting firms.

In conclusion, Qatar Stock Exchange invites all Qatari companies to participate in the Al-Nukhba Program and take full advantage of its objectives.
