Meet the Expert: A Podcast Series with QRDI
The QRDI podcast came to life from a clear ambition: bring long-form conversations with Qatar's most influential researchers to a wider audience, without diluting the depth of what they had to say.
The brief called for sharper editorial framing on each discussion, and an end-to-end production and communications operation to match.
The "Meet the Expert" podcast (لقاء الخبراء) was filmed in both Arabic and English, bringing prominent voices from Qatar's research and innovation ecosystem into a format built for the ideas shaping the country's future.
Five Episodes, Five Voices from Qatar's Research Community
The first run brings together five leading figures from Qatar's academic and applied research communities:
Dr. Aimen Erbad, Vice President for Research and Graduate Studies, Qatar University
Dr. Fadwa El-Mellouhi, Associate Professor, Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU)
Dr. Gonzalo Castro de la Mata, Executive Director, Earthna
Dr. Ahmed Elmagarmid, Executive Director, Qatar Computing Research Institute (QCRI)
Mohammed Suleiman, CEO and Co-founder of KARTY
Studio Production and In-House Post for the QRDI Podcast
