HEC Paris, Microsoft partner to elevate market leaders – The Peninsula Qatar

Doha: As part of its national efforts to increase Qatar’s competitiveness and build the digital capabilities of the country’s current and future workforce, Microsoft  partnered with HEC Paris, Europe’s top ranked business school, to deliver executive education in digital transformation to public and private sector leaders set to drive Qatar’s visionary innovation agenda.

The partnership comes in line with Microsoft’s commitment to accelerate Qatar National Vision 2030 through the skilling, upskilling and reskilling of the workforce to ensure everyone remains competitive in an increasingly knowledge-based economy and can fully harness the unlimited potential of the upcoming Microsoft Cloud Datacentre region. To this end, Microsoft has launched a nationwide skilling initiative to train over 50,000 individuals in cloud and AI technologies over the next five years, so they can drive meaningful contributions and sustained impact in the country’s economic growth and diversification.
