The Embassy of the Republic of Uganda in the State of Qatar is pleased to announce that the Second Edition of the Uganda–Qatar Business Forum will take place on Monday, 27th October 2025, at Rotana City Center, Doha, under the theme: “Uganda and Qatar in Partnership for Shared Economic Development.”
Building on the success of the inaugural edition, this year’s Forum will bring together senior dignitaries, investors, business leaders, and government officials from Uganda, Qatar, and the wider Gulf region to explore new opportunities in trade, investment, and tourism. The event is organized in partnership with KON W.L.L as the Strategic Partner.
Speaking ahead of the Forum, H.E. Dr. Stephen Chebrot, Ambassador of the Republic of Uganda to the State of Qatar, emphasized that the Forum demonstrates Uganda’s growing engagement with Qatar under the framework of economic and commercial diplomacy.

The one-day event will feature keynote addresses, panel discussions, and sectoral presentations by leading Ugandan and Qatari institutions, including the Uganda Investment Authority (UIA), Uganda Free Zones and Export Promotion Authority, Private Sector Foundation Uganda (PSFU), Qatar Chamber of Commerce, and Qatar Tourism, among others.
