Barzah Capital joins QFC Digital Assets Lab to advance real estate tokenisation model

Doha, Qatar - Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) has welcomed Barzah Capital into its Digital Assets Lab, where the two entities will collaborate on developing and testing a real estate tokenisation model. Barzah Capital, led by real estate experts, aims to transform property assets into digital tokens, enabling investors to purchase fractional shares in real estate.

Barzah Capital, a 2025 graduate of the Qatar FinTech Hub Pre-Acceleration programme and a portfolio company of Qatar Development Bank, will work with QFC to navigate regulatory pathways and explore partnerships to enhance its infrastructure. Real estate in Qatar presents significant potential for tokenisation, offering investors greater accessibility, liquidity, and transparency in property investments.

Mansoor Rashid Al-Khater, QFC's Chief Executive Officer, expressed optimism about tokenisation's impact on Qatar's financial services landscape. He emphasized the importance of Barzah Capital's efforts in advancing the digital assets ecosystem in alignment with Qatar National Vision 2030 and the Third Financial Sector Strategic Plan.

Barzah Capital's Founder and Chairman, Mana Ibrahim H Al-Mana, highlighted the significance of developing a regulated tokenisation model in Qatar, stating that their model will be Shariah-compliant, initially focused on real estate with plans to expand to other Real World Assets. Through QFC's Digital Assets Lab, Barzah Capital aims to validate their legal, regulatory, and technological approach, contributing to the growth of Qatar's trusted digital assets ecosystem.
