The world’s leading conference dedicated to the design and development of world class stadiums

Thank you to all those who contributed to the great success of the 2011 edition of Stadium and Venue Design and Development Summit; with over 250 regional and international players having descended on Doha to discover and debate the design and development of world class stadiums for Qatar.

With the spotlight on how Qatar’s vision will be implemented, the event provided an ideal platform for knowledge transfer between international and regional experts highlighting the global community’s willingness to be involved in the most challenging and innovative tournament to date which will in turn set precedents for the future.

Building on the success of Stadium and Venue Design and Development Qatar, IQPC is delighted to announce Stadium Design and Development Qatar 2012. The 3rd Edition in our Stadium Design and Development Series will be held in Doha, Qatar from 27 – 31 May 2011, so watch this space for further updates!

"The summit was excellent in delivering a great deal of information regarding design concepts and principles and providing expert insight into the delivery of world class stadiums. I also received a lot of information about some of the latest trends and technologies available in the market and had the opportunity to meet many new companies and clients which may lead to future partnerships."

- Design Manager, KCIC

“Very enlightening, brought stadia to life and put them in their local context.”

Assistant Vice President, Projacs International

“The workshop topics and presentations were very apt for the present scenario in Qatar. I enjoyed every bit of it.”

Senior Architect, Qatar Design Consortium

“It was extremely beneficial for me to attend this event and meet with international design and consultancy firms that do stadiums and manage them, in particular with the FIFA World Cup in 2022 coming to Qatar. Anyone of us could find him or herself working on a sports facilities project. Networking was great and defining the line of services of each firm and its orientation and specialties was even greater.”
