Qatar aims at spending $55bn to $60bn on non-energy projects over the next seven to 10 years, the country's Minister of Economy and Commerce Sheikh Mohamed bin Ahmed Al Thani said, according to the Peninsula.
The investments are to focus on a host of key ventures such as transport and infrastructure, tourism, sports and industry, including the new airport project and road networks in Doha.
Sheikh Mohamed was addressing a two-day conference entitled ‘Major Non-Energy Project Opportunities in Qatar’ organized by London-based Middle East Economic Digest (MEED).
