An Expo 2020 Dubai team arrived here Qatar on May 1 as part of its ‘GCC Road show’, designed to encourage business engagement and growth across the region and highlight the lasting benefits of working with the Expo. They connected with key business figures at a session hosted by the Qatar Ministry of Economy and Commerce in Doha.
