Innovation Lincolnshire Outreach programme LDA Knowledge Connect support programme Qatar Science and Technology Park (QSTP) |
With $750 million being invested in QSTP, it is well on its way to becoming one of the world's premier locations for research, technology development and commercialisation. Leading technology companies such as EADS, ExxonMobil, GE, Microsoft, Total and Shell have already been attracted to invest $225 million over their first five years at the science park. ANGLE is responsible for the strategic planning and management of QSTP. We are leading the research and commercialisation process in Qatar through a raft of QSTP programmes including the creation and growth of new technology companies, establishment of investment funds, and the delivery of entrepreneurship training and mentoring programme. ANGLE is providing a seven person management team to lead QSTP, while simultaneously training Qatari nationals for key leadership roles.
In addition the ANGLE US Management team were selected by the Qatar Foundation to undertake the development of a National Research Strategy for Qatar. The strategy underpins many aspects of the development of technology-based industry in Qatar. The work involved the development of comparative analyses of the research and development strategies of a wide range of other countries, coupled with an extensive consultation process within Qatar to arrive at a set of national research priorities and the development of the associated strategy and implementation plan. |
