“The Qatar Financial Centre is pleased to welcome The Hashgraph Association Digital Assets Venture Studio to the QFC Digital Assets Lab. This partnership is closely aligned with Qatar’s fintech strategy and is instrumental in advancing our efforts in developing and launching innovative projects that establish the country as a financial and commercial hub by 2030.”
Last week the Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) Authority announced the launch of the Digital Assets Framework 2024 – establishing the regulatory framework for digital assets in Qatar. The development of this framework serves as a key step in achieving the goals set out by Qatar's Central Bank in line with the 2030 National Vision.
To support this initiative and local Qatari and international portfolio companies in the development of regulatory-compliant decentralized finance (DeFi) solutions and digital assets, The Hashgraph Association and the Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) Authority announced earlier this year, its partnership to launch a $50 million Digital Assets Venture Studio.
