Qatar Media Corporation has launched a new television channel covering business and economic news from the country.
Qatar Business Channel (QBC) currently broadcasts for 15 hours a day, from 09:00 to midnight, including nine hours of live programming, with plans to transition to 24-hour broadcasting in the future.
Programming includes specialised news bulletins, in-depth analysis and real-time reports covering key economic sectors, while a range of shows will address topics such as the film industry, women in business, legal frameworks in Qatar and the Gulf, and major economic developments.
Marwan Aboushanab, supervisor of news and program content at QBC, told Qatar News Agency (QNA) that the channel's 4K broadcasting capability sets it apart, adding that it is among the first economic channels originating from an Arab country rather than operating under a global media brand.
He added that the channel is supported by more than 30 correspondents across major regional and international capitals, alongside agreements with four global agencies to provide market data and economic news.
