Introduction — The Corporate Strategy Revolution Has Started

Qatar’s corporate landscape is entering a new era.

AI, automation, data intelligence, and digital transformation are reshaping how:

  • companies compete
  • leaders make decisions
  • teams operate
  • customers engage
  • industries evolve
  • business models function

The corporate strategy frameworks that worked in 2010, 2015, and even 2020 are now outdated.
The rules have changed.

Today:

AI is not a technology upgrade.

AI is a corporate strategy upgrade.

And the companies that integrate AI into their leadership, planning, operations, workforce, and business model will dominate the next decade.

As the founder of Brand Consulting Corporation (BCCQA), Shan (MP Shanavas) has spent 25+ years building, advising, auditing, transforming, and scaling companies in Qatar, India, Dubai, and globally.

His analysis is clear:

Qatar’s next generation of successful companies will be AI-first companies.

This blog reveals how corporate strategy in Qatar is being transformed by AI — and how BCCQA helps companies leverage this transformation.
