Doha, Qatar
Qtel today announced a major strategic agreement
with Al Wa'ab City Management that will create a
first-of-its-kind communication infrastructure,
deploying the most advanced solutions in
telecommunications for its major real estate
development.
Over 2000 residential units, 100,000 sqm of
retail and 200,000 sqm |
of commercial accommodation as well as a world class
hotel are being developed and completed in phases in Al
Wa'ab City, the city within the city of Doha.
To service this burgeoning residential and business hub a
number of dedicated GSM sites for mobile services, high-level
fibre connections for Broadband and fixed line services will
be installed, as well as innovative in-building solutions for
the different elements of the project.
Al Wa'ab City is founded on the vision of developing the
first fully integrated community within Doha, a premium
retail, leisure and entertainment destination.
Sheikha Hanadi Nasser Bin Khaled Al Thani CEO of Al Wa'ab
City Management, said: "Collaboration is at the core of our
values and as such, we see this strategic alliance with Qtel
as a natural partnership. Al Wa'ab City is a Qatari real
estate development aiming to bring people and businesses
together, within a self-sustained community inspiring great
opportunities. Thus, we are truly pleased to welcome Qtel,
the country's leading telecommunications provider and
worldwide ambassador of Qatari business, in this partnership.
The provision of the highest level of communication services
within Al Wa'ab City is a must and will add value to the
development; improving the quality of life for residents and
enhancing operations for businesses alike".
The phased approach to development, where the network
infrastructure is designed and implemented in parallel with
specific in-building communication services, is a unique
approach within Qatar. It will deliver the
highest-quality of services for residents, while ensuring
there is significant scope for upgrades and development.
Sheikh Saud Nasser Al Thani, CEO, Qtel, said: "Qtel has a
proud history of working with many of Qatar's leading
developers on the nation's most important projects, and we
are delighted to bring the full weight of our experience to
this new development. Al Wa'ab City will have an incredibly
positive impact on the lives of residents and the wider
community of Qatar, and we believe the comprehensive
communication solution that we will implement will make an
important contribution to its success."
Qtel continues to support Qatar's rapid rate of development
by investing in a comprehensive ICT network infrastructure
across the country, more than 1,000 km of high-speed fibre
optic cables have been laid throughout Doha, providing the
potential to offer the fastest-ever Internet experience, as
well as high definition television.
Al Wa'ab City will provide housing for more than 8,000
people, yet offer the lowest density ratio in any new major
development in the country. Underground parking and
intelligent design will ensure clear, green, open spaces for
residents and the wider public to enjoy. The network
solutions from Qtel will complement this sense of space and
openness.
Qtel today announced a major strategic agreement with
Al Wa'ab City Management that will create a first-of-its-kind
communication infrastructure, deploying the most advanced
solutions in telecommunications for its major real estate
development.
Under the recently signed agreement, Qtel will provide the

comprehensive ICT solutions for each phase of the mixed-use
community.
