DOHA: As part of the Qatar-Brazil 2014 Year of Culture and in recognition of Qatar’s growing influence on the global economic and cultural sectors, Qatar Petroleum International (QPI) hosted a photography exhibition and reception in London on Tuesday. It enabled QPI to network with its stakeholders in London, providing a venue to showcase its investments, achievements and strengthen relationship with partners.
Attendees included Yousef bin Ali Yousef Al Khater, Qatari Ambassador to the UK and Brazilian Ambassador Roberto Jaguaribe, along with QPI executives and representatives from the company’s joint ventures in the UK such as South Hook Gas and South Hook LNG, representatives from QPI’s global partners and community members from the UK.
The evening displayed Qatar and Brazil’s heritage through a photography exhibition ‘Qatar-Brazil: A Journey from the Amazon to the Desert’. It featured photographs of landscapes and people of Brazil, taken by Qatari photographers on an expedition across the country in March 2014, as part of the QPI-sponsored Qatar-Brazil 2014 Year of Culture.
“The event honours bilateral relationships and business partnerships QPI has formed to support Qatar on its journey towards achieving its National Vision 2030,” said Nasser Al Jaidah, CEO, QPI. “Following our investment in an oil producing asset in Brazil known as BC-10, QPI is proud to be part of the platinum sponsor of the Year of Culture which celebrated the UK in 2013 and Brazil in 2014. The initiative allows us to go beyond our economic ties and develop cultural and diplomatic ties in the countries we operate.”
