express our profound thanks and appreciation to RIPE NCC for their valuable
collaboration and continuous support, which effectively contributes to achieving our
strategic goals.”

Dr. Chafic Chaya, Regional Manager for Public Policy and Government Affairs in the
Middle East at RIPE NCC, said: “We are thrilled to champion the development of the
local community in alignment with our strategic alliance with the Communications
Regulatory Authority of Qatar. The strides Qatar is making in the adoption of IPv6 are
commendable, and our commitment to bolstering this momentum is unwavering. By
providing our members and the CRA with the necessary technical expertise and services,
we aim to facilitate a smooth transition from IPv4 to IPv6 to meet the increasing
demand for connectivity and support the growth and development of Qatar’s digital
infrastructure. The RIPE NCC specialized training covers a wide array of critical subjects,
particularly IPv6 and routing security, and is enhanced by pioneering tools such as RIPE
Atlas, RIPEstat, RIS and others. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the CRA for their
pivotal role and continued collaboration on this transformative journey.”
