QATAR // A NEW REGIONAL SHOPPING DESTINATION

Mall of Qatar Shopping Center was announced on a press conference this week in #Doha,Qatar. It is certainly a big major project under construction that will boost #Qatar 2030 vision and certainly add value of experience to local residents and visitors. The regional mall is planned to open on 2015 and the concept, design and experience are breathtaking, from size to content.

#Destinationtalk // Qatar Blink is not the promised journey from A to ?

Qatar sounds like an exotic and wealthy destination, a country where everything is possible. What are your thoughts on this topic? What has been your brand awareness exposure? Qatar is heading major development targeting international commitments like Fifa World Cup 2020 and bidding on the Olympic games.
