"Very good attempt to awake the policy makers of Qatar to think and act in the direction of a pollution free Qatar, i.e. a renewable energy future using country."- Managing Director, Sendian Group

"A very high quality platform towards progress of this country in the right approach."- Project Manager, RA Design Consultants
"The entire event was quite informative. It was quote useful since it was in line with COP18 (UN Climate Change Conference 2012 in Doha) guidelines to make the world a better place to live in with less pollution."- Dy General Manager, MJB Trading and Construction Company LLC
"Excellent organising of professionals to brainstorm together out of the box."- Project Director, RA Design Consultants

There have been very high level experts from not only the region but also from US and Europe which makes it extremely interesting."- Senior Programme Officer Policy Advisor, International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA)
"I am absolutely looking forward to working with naseba again. This is a group of people who really wants to do the right kind of program, who want to do a good quality program and I think you’ve succeeded this year."- Shareholder, Head of Global Renewable Energy Practice Group, Greenberg Traurig LLP
"I’ve been really impressed with the engagement and the enthusiasm this event seems to be generating in the region. This format of bringing investors, policy makers and technology experts together is an excellent format."- Business Development Manager, ECN
"We’ve made many strong contacts that are interested in investing in Amonix and which is why we wanted to participate. We particularly love the one-to-one meetings; it’s been very worth wile to spend time with potential investors and customers explaining our business strategy."- CFO, Amonix Inc
"We really love this format, here we actually found real customers. It wasn’t like 1,000 people none of whom are buying. Here we met with customers who want to buy from us."- Head of Department, Robotina
"We had an opportunity to network one-to-one with potential customers which were very interesting for companies like us who want to penetrate new markets. Working with naseba was a good experience, especially on-site as we felt that you really understood the market and that helped us a lot in meeting the correct target of people."- Managing Director, GoSolar
"This was not very generic which you see a lot for events from time to time, it was really very focused with industry leaders and the right partners who come to develop or finance a project. This is why I think this was very special and unique and that’s what I enjoyed most about it."- Vice President Business Development, First Solar Middle East
