Based in Doha, the Aspire Academy for Sports Excellence is truly putting Qatar on the map and helping the wider world learn about the delights of the nation and the wealth of attractions, features and facilities that Qatar has to offer – so much so that there is a growing community of expatriates living and working in Qatar and an increase in tourism numbers choosing to visit Qatar.
It is now possible for international citizens to own property in Qatar in certain areas such as within The Pearl development, and because the government is diversifying the nation’s economy away from oil and natural gas there is a vast breadth of employment opportunity opening up in Qatar. This article examines the effects the Aspire Academy for Sports Excellence is having on Qatar and the reasons why more and more people are choosing to move to live in this particular Middle Eastern nation.
The motto of the Academy for Sports Excellence in Qatar is ‘Aspire Today…Inspire Tomorrow’ and it is apparently also the philosophy by which the Qatari government operates. The Qatari government has relatively unassumingly begun the process of developing their nation economically away from dependence on oil and natural gas. And unlike many other Middle Eastern countries Qatar is not diversifying heavily into financial services or real estate for example, rather it is developing world leading educational establishments such as the Aspire Academy for Sports Excellence in a bid to draw the elite to live and work in Qatar.
Leading a significant part of the development of the nation is the Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development which is a private, nonprofit organization for the development of solid, long term and sustainable education, research and community welfare projects based around the principle that a nation’s greatest resource is the potential of its people.
It is this holistic and nurturing principle that is drawing a greater number of international businesses to establish bases in a country that is focused on providing those who choose to live in Qatar with the opportunity to have access to the very best educational and research facilities in the world. Naturally enough businesses are keen to tap into this unrivalled source of incredible talent and also naturally enough skilled expatriates and those international citizens who want their children to have the very best start in life are choosing to move to live in Qatar.
The Aspire Academy for Sports Excellence in Qatar is just a single example of the world-class educational and inspirational facilities available in Qatar and it marks simply the beginning of the nation’s rapid expansion to become a dominant leader on the world stage. Qatar is a nation in transition and a country set to become one of the most desirable in which to work, live, do business and learn.
