Doha, Qatar: 13 May, 2015 – Cityscape Qatar ended its 2015 edition on a high after its three day exhibition and summit reaffirms that all real estate sectors are set for significant expansion in the coming years, particularly residential and retail, as Qatar continues to invest in large scale infrastructure and construction projects in the lead up to the 2022 World Cup and the Qatar National Vision 2030.

Mr. Dagher continued, “During Cityscape we had the chance to showcase The Pearl Qatar and highlight its positioning as a model, first-class mixed-use urban development in Qatar offering five-star services to a growing list of residents, retailers and visitors. The Island is at once a residential destination, a retail haven and a luxury resort attracting visitors from Qatar and abroad, and we are pleased to have the opportunity to share this message with investors and journalists visiting our stand.”
