“We feel very proud to win the coveted Qatar CSR Summit 2023 Award, and we are honoured to serve and support our community here in Qatar. Our strong community relations and presence in this unique event have facilitated meeting valuable potential partners from both the public and the private sectors, and with new successful relationships, we will certainly go further on our journey in CSR, covering community involvement, environmental protection, inclusion and sustainability.”
