This inaugural session of M360 MENA in Doha was a success by every measure. Collaboration and partnership have never been more vital and business leaders, policymakers and thought leaders shared how this is fuelling digital innovation and acceleration across the region. This is a pivotal moment in our industry and, convening here with the support from our Member and Host Sponsor, Ooredoo in partnership with the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology of Qatar, created the perfect culture for inspiration to abound.
