From the Qatari villa to branded towers, design quality increasingly sets price, sales pace and long-term value. The panel looks at how architecture shapes demand, how a concept becomes a feasible and investable project, and what developers in Qatar should expect from their design teams.

A sales and marketing walkthrough of how a real Qatari project launch is planned and executed: pricing strategy, channel mix, the phase that sold out fastest, and the one that needed a re-think.

A hands-on, interactive session for brokers, agents and developer sales teams covering how to qualify an international buyer, structure a cross-border transaction, and close: from first enquiry through to registration; including a live walkthrough of the paperwork and the points where deals most often stall.

As Qatar’s master developer, Qatari Diar has shaped some of the country’s largest urban projects, with Lusail City foremost among them. This presentation focuses on the projects on the ground: what has been delivered, where the flagship developments stand today and the phases still to come. It then sets out the opportunities currently open to investors, buyers and partners, and how to engage with them. The session ends by linking Qatari Diar’s long-term approach to the Forum’s theme, “Stability as an Asset Class”.

Away from the mega-mall pipeline, Qatar’s small-format retail and F&B real estate is growing fast. This panel looks at ground-floor units in new residential districts and at what is driving leasing demand and rental growth at street level.

A street-level conversation with a veteran Doha brokerage leader on how demand is really moving neighborhood by neighborhood; which districts are turning over fastest, where rents are firming, and what that tells investors that the headline market data doesn't.

Qetaifan Projects is behind one of Qatar’s newest waterfront destinations, Qetaifan Island North in Lusail, which brings together residential, hospitality, retail and leisure in one master-planned island. In this presentation, Qetaifan Projects walks through its flagship developments: what has been delivered, where each project stands today and the phases still to come. It then sets out the opportunities currently open to investors, buyers and partners, and how to engage with them. The session ends by linking Qetaifan’s approach to the Forum’s theme, “Stability as an Asset Class”.

A conversation with the leadership of mid-size, fast-scaling Qatari developers, distinct from the market's largest incumbents on what it takes to grow a development pipeline, raise construction financing, and build a brand from a standing start.

Sustainability is moving from a design choice to a market requirement. Investors are asking for ESG data, tenants are looking at operating costs, and lenders are paying closer attention to how buildings perform over time. A representative from GORD looks at what this shift means for real estate in Qatar: how sustainability standards such as GSAS are applied in practice, what ESG expectations mean for developers and asset owners, and why buildings that perform well on sustainability are better placed to hold their value over the long term.
