MCIT holds 2nd executive roundtable
QNA Doha As part of its commitment to enhancing government efficiency and adopting advanced AI tools, the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT) held the second executive roundtable for the Copilot Adoption Programme, with participation from leadership representatives across government entities. The roundtable served as a platform to review progress achieved since the programme's launch in February, evaluate key outcomes, and explore pathways to expand and deepen Copilot's implementation in the upcoming phase. The meeting featured a comprehensive overview of first-phase achievements, including the successful delivery of over 174 specialised training sessions for representatives across government entities, with 56 additional sessions scheduled through June. Discussions also addressed upcoming priorities, such as achieving full licence activation, activating the AI Council to oversee institutional adoption, and launching internal Copilot Champions programmes to support training, engagement, and expansion efforts across government organisations. Programme indicators revealed steady progress, with 67 percent of licences activated and strong satisfaction scores from participating employees—90 percent for content quality and 95 percent for training delivery. These results reflect strong engagement from participating entities and a growing culture of digital enablement within the public sector. This positive trajectory is expected to continue as the programme enters its next stage, with more advanced workshops and expanded technical support planned in the coming months. At the conclusion of the meeting, MCIT honoured Sidra Medicine, Ashghal, and its internal teams in recognition of their tangible efforts to drive institutional adoption and maximise the tool's impact on productivity. Launched in February, the Copilot Adoption Programme represents a key pillar of the Qatar Digital Agenda 2030. It serves as a practical model of MCIT's strategic direction to leverage advanced technologies in modernising government operations and equipping employees with cutting-edge digital tools. The programme also reflects the ministry's commitment to fostering a culture of innovation within public institutions and broadening the use of artificial intelligence across sectors—ultimately contributing to greater operational efficiency and added value in public service delivery.
