“It’s a great opportunity to work with our partner, UIP-ICP, to foster dialogue among our regional and international peers. We will emphasise the role of Qatar as a thought-leader and champion for international collaboration and communication.” said Abdullah bin Hamad Al Attiyah, Founder of Al Attiyah Foundation.

The Al Attiyah Foundation is co-managing the programme for the second day - ‘Energy Day’ of the summit, dedicated to Energy and Sustainability.
The Foundation will lead the discussion with world-renowned experts on ‘how the global energy landscape will evolve.’ On the first day, Al Attiyah will also join an expert ministerial panel exploring the theme in detail.
