    Qatar Leadership Conference (June 2017)

    I just received VCU’s beautiful 20th anniversary book, Cultivating the Arts. It is an inspiring publication, beautifully designed (as one would expect, of course) but well-written and a real “keeper” among what are so often boring institutional documents. This one sings and the photos are superb.

    I wanted to pass on Dr Khalid’s thanks and appreciation for your effort and collaboration on this project. Thank you for your immense patience and professionalism as we all navigated through the past year. And we also look forward to continuing the work with further updates to the publication, and with the planned website.

    Qatar Untold

    Insights from inside.

    Qatar can be a confusing country. Here we shine a light on questions people and businesses always have — and others they might not have thought to ask.


    • The State of Online Media in Qatar

      Almost 90% of Qatar's population are expats, and that single fact changes everything about how online media works here. The publications, the audiences, the advertising — none of it behaves the way you would expect if you are used to working in media elsewhere. Here is what the landscape actually looks like.

    • Getting started with your company’s blog – The Basics
