Meeza and Huawei have signed two strategic memorandums of understanding (MoUs) during MWC25 Doha to advance Qatar's national priorities in digital infrastructure, AI, and talent development.

The agreements demonstrate how private-sector innovation can support the country's vision for economic diversification, technological leadership, and long-term resilience.

The MoUs aim to deepen collaboration in Private Digital Infrastructure and AI services, and to launch a National Training Programme to cultivate local expertise in emerging digital fields. By enabling Qatar's private sector to lead innovation and adopt advanced technological solutions, Huawei and Meeza aim to strengthen the country's digital foundations, foster homegrown talent, and enhance national competitiveness.

"This partnership with Huawei reflects our continued commitment as a leading IT service provider to support Qatar's digital transformation and economic diversification," said Meeza CEO Mohamed Ali al-Ghaithani.

He said: "Building strong local capabilities in advanced technologies is essential for long-term national progress. Through these initiatives, we aim to empower local talent, accelerate innovation, and contribute to a technology ecosystem that benefits the entire country."

Rico Lin, president of Huawei Gulf region, emphasised the strategic significance of private-sector engagement in national initiatives: "Huawei is proud to partner with Meeza to advance Qatar's digital agenda.

"Strengthening in-country infrastructure, AI capabilities, and local expertise is critical for fostering a knowledge-based economy, reducing reliance on hydrocarbons, and supporting sustainable growth. This collaboration reflects our commitment to building resilient, future-ready digital ecosystems that will underpin the country's economic and technological ambitions."

As global digital transformation accelerates, the MoUs highlight the essential role of private companies in complementing national strategies. By jointly exploring advanced technologies, AI-driven solutions, and localised platforms, Huawei and Meeza aim to create robust, adaptable digital ecosystems that meet evolving technological demands and drive innovation across multiple sectors.

Through these agreements, Huawei and Meeza reaffirm the private sector's vital role in empowering Qatar's national vision, strengthening critical digital infrastructure, enabling advanced technological capabilities, and nurturing local talent to lead the country's digital future.

By boosting private-sector engagement in strategic digital initiatives, these partnerships support Qatar's long-term economic resilience, help diversify the national economy, and contribute to realising Qatar National Vision 2030 objectives, ensuring sustainable growth, innovation, and prosperity across multiple sectors.
