Leading Qatari real estate company Msheireb Properties’ chief executive officer was named the ‘Best CEO’ at the Qatar Today Business Excellence Awards held recently in Doha.

Abdulla Hassan Al Mehshadi accepted the award at the event which was held under the auspices of Qatar Chamber and organised by Oryx Advertising Company.

“I am absolutely humbled by this award, and would like to accept it on behalf of all of my colleagues at Msheireb Properties. I feel very blessed to be in the position I am in, leading a world-class organisation, and in a role I could not fulfil without the support of each and every person at Msheireb,” said Al Mehshadi.

“Together we have had many accomplishments, most notably the continuing progress on the Msheireb Downtown Doha project. As 2015 progresses, we look forward to achieving many more milestones for the company on the path to supporting the Qatar National Vision 2030,” he said.

“Msheireb Properties’ mission is to change the way people think about urban living and to improve their overall quality of life, through innovations that encourage social interaction, respect for culture, and greater care for the environment,” Al Mehshadi remarked.

“With Msheireb Downtown Doha, our flagship project, the company is developing a blueprint for sustainable urban regeneration. We are inspired to create a beautiful legacy and a vibrant new community at the heart of our capital city for all to enjoy,” he added.

Msheireb Downtown Doha is a large-scale project covering 31 hectares with up to six basement levels and 101 buildings.

Constructed in an area of great historical and social importance to Doha, the development seeks to revive the past, rediscover traditions and regenerate the local community. - TradeArabia News Service
