The Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT), in a strategic collaboration with the Ministry of Public Health (MOPH), recently organized a key awareness workshop aimed at advancing Qatar’s healthcare sector. The event, part of the broader SMEs Go Digital program, brought together small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to accelerate their adoption of digital solutions and artificial intelligence.
The initiative is designed to bolster the national healthcare system by promoting technological integration, directly aligning with the country’s ambitious digital transformation goals.
Fostering Innovation with AI and Digital Tools
The workshop provided a platform for healthcare SMEs to explore the tangible benefits of digital transformation. A specialized session, led by experts in healthcare technology, offered practical insights into how emerging technologies can fundamentally reshape the sector.
Discussions focused on empowering healthcare providers to improve patient experiences, significantly increase operational efficiency, and unlock new avenues for business growth. Participants were shown real-world applications of digital tools and AI, demonstrating how healthcare organizations can modernize workflows, enhance service delivery, and build resilience for future industry demands.
A Part of a Broader National Strategy
This healthcare-focused workshop is a key component of a wider series of sessions organized by the MCIT under the SMEs Go Digital program. The national initiative targets SMEs across several critical sectors, including tourism, education, retail, wholesale, transport, and logistics.
