In Qatar we are working toward putting into place an accommodative and supporting ecosystem for Islamic FinTechs to succeed within and beyond our borders. This ecosystem is dependent on four critical success factors: a conducive environment with ample funding sources coupled with a variety of support mechanisms, access to talent to promote innovation, engaged customers to ensure the sustainability of businesses and partnerships to enable the scalability of Islamic FinTech solutions. Together, these four pillars provide the solid foundation on which Islamic FinTechs can flourish. We welcome partners to join as we progress to realizing our aspirations in this strategic area for us and the worldwide Islamic Finance industry.
