What changed

Qatar Tourism shortlisted 276 nominees from more than 1,623 submissions across 35 subcategories and seven main categories. Public voting runs from 5 to 12 October, with the awards scheduled for 23 November.

Business impact

  • A shortlist of 276 nominees drawn from more than 1,623 submissions provides a broad, current map of operators and organisations active in Qatar’s visitor economy.
  • The 35 subcategories across seven main categories can support structured partner discovery by hospitality capability rather than an undifferentiated contact search.
  • Award participation is not evidence of financial capacity, procurement authority or willingness to partner; every commercial candidate still requires independent qualification.
