National Digital Agenda 2030 was launched aiming to achieve sustainable development goals aligned with country's national vision

Under the auspices of Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs H E Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, the Ministry of Communications and Information and Technology (MCIT) formally launched the National Digital Agenda (NDA) 2030 with the goal of achieving sustainable development objectives in line with the nation's national vision. 

Along with other ministry representatives and officials, H E Mohammed bin Ali bin Mohammed Al Mannai, the Minister of Communications and Technology (MCIT), attended the occasion.

The Minister emphasised the need of keeping up with the global digital agenda while highlighting the MCIT's commitment to defining the digital future.

The Minister emphasised that Arab nations with prospective investments in the area now have new opportunities thanks to the current Web Summit Qatar. 

Six strategic pillars—Digital Infrastructure, Digital Government, Digital Innovation, Digital Technologies, Digital Economy, and Digital Society—form the foundation of the Digital Agenda 2030. The foundational elements of Qatar's digital future and competitiveness are these important pillars.

The Digital Agenda 2030, with its implementation plan consisting of 23 major initiatives, is expected to have a noticeable effect on every sector of the country's economy. 

The real GDP is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8% as a result of these projects. More significantly, though, they are expected to increase the ICT sector's GDP contribution, which may rise to 3.5 percent in the non-oil sector.
