The world of Islamic finance is on the brink of a transformation, and the 5th Doha Islamic Finance Conference, held on March 19, 2019, at the Sheraton Hotel in Doha, was a powerful testament to this shift. Organized by Bait Al-Mashura Finance Consultations in association with the Qatar Financial Center, this conference was more than just an industry event—it was a bold step towards the future.
Under the patronage of His Excellency Sheikh Abdullah bin Nasser bin Khalifa Al Thani, the Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, the conference brought together leaders, scholars, and innovators to explore the theme “Islamic Finance & Digital World”. The event was a launchpad for groundbreaking initiatives, including unveiling of the Islamic Energy Bank and the innovative e-token “I-DINAR,” both of which are poised to revolutionize the industry.
The success of this conference was amplified by the support of key sponsors and academic partners. “Barwa Bank” and the “Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs” led the charge as Diamond sponsors, with “QAF Holding Groups” as the Platinum sponsor. The academic credibility was ensured by the participation of the College of Business and Economics at Qatar University and the College of Islamic Studies at Hamad Bin Khalifa University.
