Invest Qatar and Brain Co set framework for AI pilots
The parties announced a framework to identify AI applications and develop pilot programmes with public- and private-sector stakeholders in Qatar. The announcement does not specify a product purchase or investment amount.
Invest Qatar and Silicon Valley-based applied AI company Brain Co announced a partnership on 27 September to support AI adoption and digital transformation in Qatar. The partners said they will work with public- and private-sector institutions to identify and develop applications and pilot programmes for sector-specific priorities.
Invest Qatar said it would support Brain Co’s expansion in Qatar and the region by facilitating connections and cooperation opportunities. The parties also plan training and knowledge-transfer initiatives in AI and related technologies; the announcement did not give a start date for a specific pilot, a contract value or a verified implementation result.

Measurement and privacy details
Google Analytics measurement starts only if you allow it. After consent, automatic measurement may cover scrolls, outbound link clicks, downloads, video engagement, site searches and basic form interactions; search terms may be detected from URL parameters. This site’s own code does not send form field values; email redaction in automatic measurement is best-effort, not guaranteed. Our manual page-view event uses a cleaned URL. You can change your choice later. Visits that begin with consent may also send numeric LCP, INP and CLS performance measurements after Analytics loads. A first or later grant starts this on the next page load; withdrawing consent stops these performance reports for this page. The preference cookie lasts six months; advertising measurement and personalization stay off.
