In line with its corporate social responsibility Qatar Steel participated as a silver sponsor of Al Khor Club’s Midar Maritime Festival, held recently at Al Khor Port. The two-day event was organised by the cultural and social committee at Al Khor Sports Club and Ibrahim Bin Ali Centre for reviving Qatar’s Heritage. 
Qatar Steel’s support of the maritime festival emerges from its interest to take part in all social activities and functions that may contribute to the benefit of the local community. The festival aims at reviving Qatar’s past Heritage, familiarise young generations with the heritage of their fathers and grandfather in land and sea, link the Qatari youth with the local environment as well as giving the visitors insight into the country’s rich marine heritage. 
The Festival’s programme included fishing competitions. Eight teams participated and prizes were given to the winning teams who took the first three positions.The Peninsula
