At QRDI Council, this resilience underpins our work in advancing Qatar’s innovation and scientific research agenda and supporting national priorities.

QRDI Council remains fully operational. Our programs, funding mechanisms, partnerships, and innovation initiatives continue to move forward, sustaining momentum across the national innovation ecosystem.

Amid current regional developments, QRDI Council remains actively engaged with partners across the wider innovation ecosystem to ensure that innovation and technology development continue to support national priorities where they matter most. Through our programs, collaborations, and initiatives, we continue to advance practical solutions that contribute to resilience, preparedness, and continuity.

At a time such as this, QRDI Council’s role extends beyond maintaining existing programs.

Our commitment remains clear: to strengthen collaboration across sectors, support the country’s innovation ambitions, and help ensure that innovation delivers tangible value to national priorities.
