Doha: Investment Holding Group (IHG) is getting ready to reveal two new healthcare projects in cooperation with international health care organizations. Both projects are in the healthcare sector, said the company yesterday.
“The first project is The View Hospital in cooperation with Cedars Sinai in the USA. The second project is the Korean Medical Center in cooperation with the most prominent service providers of healthcare services in Korea,” said the company in a statement to the Qatar Stock Exchange, yesterday. “Both projects are part of the healthcare sector in IHG,” it added.
Last April, IHG announced its strategic redistribution of its businesses into five sectors: Healthcare, Services, Tourism, Contracting and Industries. This strategic decision comes to capitalise on Qatar’s market and on the expansion in regional and international markets as well.
In the services sector, IHG announced that it is working on a number of contracts to provide catering services, facilities management, security and human resources ahead of the most-awaited FIFA World Cup 2022.
In the contracting and industries sectors, IHG is getting ready to invest in modular construction while working on developing all its business sectors.
Last week, IHG announced its latest projects, Al Maha Island, the entertainment and leisure destination that will transform Qatar tourism. The world-class project is led by the association of IHG, IMG, in collaboration with Qatar Tourism Authority and Qatari Diar.
Al Maha Island is set to become a hotspot for Qatar tourism - attracting over 1.5 million visitors per year. The island is located in Lusail near Place Vendome mall and linked to the mainland via a causeway.
Al Maha’s key attraction, Doha Winter Wonderland, will be managed by IMG, a global leader in events and media. IMG is the producer and operator of the London’s famous Hyde Park Winter Wonderland.
Al Maha Island demonstrates the huge potential of Qatar’s tourism sector and is a manifestation of how the private sector is adapting to the fast growth in hospitality and tourism sectors in the country.
