The rapid transformations the world is witnessing in artificial intelligence and technology demand strengthening a culture of innovation. Artificial intelligence is not merely a technical development; it opens new horizons for dialogue between cultures
An extended interview with Al-Sharq in his capacity as President of the Arab Federation for AI and Programming. He argues that the rapid transformations in AI and technology demand a culture of innovation as a pillar of sustainable development, and that investing in knowledge is no longer optional. AI, he says, is not merely a technical development but a means of bringing peoples closer, building shared civilisational understanding and strengthening international cooperation. The piece also notes his inclusion on the CAP 2026 Icon of the Year list for his work in international investment, economic development and AI.
Lire l'entretien à la sourceThe Arab world is living through a delicate transitional phase, between possessing the tools of the age and the ability to employ them to produce real value
Statements given to Qatar News Agency on World Creativity and Innovation Day, published by QNA in Arabic and English and carried by Al-Sharq, Al-Raya (as an extended interview), The Peninsula and Gulf Times. He says Qatar has moved from adoption to initiative through an integrated system linking education, research and industry, and that the Arab world is in a delicate transitional phase between owning the tools of the age and being able to use them to produce real value, with the gap still in knowledge production and turning ideas into competitive products. AI, he argues, widens the frontiers of creativity and supports the digitisation of Arab heritage, while cultural identity is shaped by history and shared experience rather than by algorithms, and the human element remains what gives work its meaning and value.
En tant qu'expert
Des articles rédigés par des journalistes qui ont sollicité son avis d'expert économique et de président de la Fédération ; les citations sont reprises telles que parues.
The Qatari advantage can lie in focusing on added value, specialisation and innovation
An Erem Business report on the Gulf moving from importing electric vehicles to manufacturing them and their components, drawing on Dr Badr bin Dalhim Al-Hajri as a Qatari economic expert. He argues Qatar need not compete head-on with the larger production projects in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, but can build a model based on technology and specialised manufacturing, using its infrastructure, investment capacity and digital transformation, with the Qatari market as a test bed before expanding abroad. Competition and integration run in parallel, he explains, since the industry is a long chain from batteries, semiconductors and software to charging and logistics; distributing roles across the Gulf turns scattered factories into a regional industrial base, and vehicles and systems designed for high temperatures could make the region a hub for hot-climate technology.
Lire l'article à la sourceIn an Al-Raya investigation titled “Misleading advertising threatens trust in the digital market” (issue 16164), economist Dr Badr bin Dalhim Al-Hajri explained that e-marketing has become an integral part of the modern economic system through its direct effect on consumer behaviour and on supply and demand, and that its danger lies not in its digital nature but in the absence of rules governing it, as some platforms leave room for practices that amount to deception, whether through exaggerated product claims, price manipulation or misleading advertising. He stressed that such practices harm not only the consumer but the economy as a whole, eroding trust in the digital market and weakening the ability of serious companies to compete fairly. Regulating e-marketing, he noted, contributes to economic stability by strengthening transparency, obliging advertisers to disclose the nature of advertising content clearly and guaranteeing accurate information; such measures are not an obstacle to trade but a draw for investment, since a strong digital economy rests on trust, fair competition and accurate information.
Summer training programmes aimed at school students are one of the important pillars of building human capital
An extended Al-Raya report on turning the summer holiday into training and volunteering programmes for young people, drawing on Dr Badr bin Dalhim Al-Hajri as an economic expert and President of the Arab Federation for AI and Programming alongside other experts and educators. He sees summer training aimed at school students as one of the pillars of building human capital, not a seasonal activity but a practical path to core skills, and early awareness of labour market needs and promising sectors as a strategic step that speeds young people into the workforce.
It goes beyond a national Emirati project to count as an Arab achievement by every measure, placing the Arab region on the map of global AI centres for the first time
An Erem Business report on the Stargate UAE project, costing more than US$30 billion, and whether Abu Dhabi becomes an AI capital in 2026, drawing on Dr Badr bin Dalhim Al-Hajri as President of the Arab Federation for AI and Programming. He sees the project as going beyond a national Emirati venture to an Arab achievement that places the region on the map of global AI centres for the first time, and calls it a real test of the Arab world moving from following global technology to partnering in making it.
The Qatar sovereign fund truly represents the great safety net of the Qatari economy
An Erem Business report on S&P, Fitch and Moody's keeping Qatar in the AA band despite around 17% of LNG output being disrupted after the March 2026 attacks on Ras Laffan, drawing on Dr Badr bin Dalhim Al-Hajri as a Qatari economic expert. He describes the Qatar sovereign fund as the economy's great safety net, notes that its investments give Qatar deep ties with global financial centres that at times amount to indirect economic and political protection, and argues that the planned production expansion does more than offset the loss: it re-anchors Qatar as a principal energy supplier as European and Asian demand for LNG grows.

An extended Erem Business reading of Qatar turning end-of-service benefits into a structured savings and investment system, drawing on Dr Badr bin Dalhim Al-Hajri as an economic expert and entrepreneur. He sees a long-term fund as financial security for residents and skilled employees that strengthens Qatar in the global labour market, and as a strategic step towards diversifying national investment and reducing reliance on oil revenue. Managing assets of this size will deepen the financial market and widen the range of instruments, he explains; the system rests on balanced management that pairs low-risk and higher-yield instruments with periodic rebalancing, and he favours a considered mandatory scheme with flexible investment options that protects every party.
