Mobile World Congress (MWC) Doha 2026

MWC Doha brings together global industry leaders, policymakers, and technology innovators to shape the future of digital transformation. In 2026, the event will be held alongside the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Plenipotentiary Conference for the first time. This offers Canadian companies a unique opportunity to engage with decision-makers from governments, international organizations, and the broader telecommunications ecosystem in a single setting.

The co-location of these two platforms creates a practical environment for dialogue that can lead to concrete collaborations, particularly in areas where Canada has recognized strengths in advanced ICT, digital infrastructure, and emerging technologies.

For Canadian firms, MWC Doha offers an opportunity to:

• increase visibility of Canadian expertise and solutions within Qatar’s public and private sectors
• explore partnerships aligned with Qatar’s ongoing investments in digital infrastructure and innovation
• position capabilities in support of projects across Qatar and the wider region, including in infrastructure, smart systems, and AI-enabled applications

Qatar continues to prioritize the information and communications technology (ICT) sector through national strategies and major development initiatives, creating opportunities for Canadian companies looking to expand in the Middle East.

MWC Doha 2026 will focus on key themes driving regional growth:

1. Connected infrastructure
2. Intelligent economies
3. Applied artificial intelligence
