Following QIA's investment, we are thrilled to open our first Middle Eastern office in Qatar’s Free Zones. We aim to use Qatar as a springboard for growth across the Middle East and North Africa, drive local enterprises’ digital transformation, and support Qatar in achieving its Vision 2030. Our collaboration with QIA, Invest Qatar, and QFZ will bridge Kingdee’s expertise with the Middle Eastern market, reinforcing our international growth plans.”

Mohammed Saif Al-Sowaidi, CEO of QIA, praised Kingdee’s capabilities in digital transformation, stating, “We are confident Kingdee will thrive in the Middle East, bringing valuable cloud and digital services to the region.”

HE Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad bin Faisal Al-Thani, CEO of QFZ, remarked that Kingdee’s presence further positions Qatar as a hub for digital innovation, aligning with Qatar’s broader economic diversification goals under its National Vision 2030.

Kingdee, with over 31 years of history and a global client base of over 7.4 million users, will leverage its expertise to deliver digital solutions in financial management, supply chain optimization, and production operations to local businesses.

The company’s Middle East expansion signifies a commitment to integrating AI-driven technologies and management models to help regional enterprises enhance their digital operations. This marks a pivotal step in Kingdee's strategy to deliver localized services from Qatar, driving technological advancements and economic growth in the region.
