Doha: Qatar Green Building Council (QGBC), a member of Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development (QF), welcomed this week Msheireb Properties, a real estate development company and a subsidiary of QF, as the official platinum sponsor for its inaugural Qatar Green Building Conference.
The conference at Qatar National Convention Centre on April 27-28 will support Qatar Foundation’s commitment to promote green best practice and environmentally sustainable infrastructure towards the successful long-term delivery of the Qatar National Vision 2030.
The Qatar Green Building Conference is committed to bridging the gap between theory and practical implementation of sustainability efforts. It will address major environmental challenges around multiple themes, including future sustainable cities, Passivhaus in the Middle East and North Africa Region, and measuring carbon foot prints.
Engineer Meshal Al Shamari, Director of QGBC, said: “We are delighted to have Msheireb Properties join us as our latest and foremost sponsor for our upcoming conference. Leading national and international organisations’ overwhelming support for the inaugural Qatar Green Building Conference is indicative of the wider interest and care for sustainability and a greener Qatar.
“These organisations are joining an expansive network of QGBC stakeholders who actively further the sustainable development goals set out in the Qatar National Vision 2030.” Eng. Abdulla Hassan Al Mehshadi, Chief Executive Officer of Msheireb Properties, said: “Msheireb Properties believes in a culture of partnership. We are fundamentally collaborative in our approach to business as experience has taught us that only through working in collaboration with leading organisations here at home, and around the globe, can we truly foster knowledge transfer around topics that are close to our heart such as sustainability and innovation in design and construction.”
