OUR INVESTMENTS

Mater Olbia

Qatar Foundation Endowment’s first investment project in Italy is the Mater Olbia hospital. SHRP, owner of the land and real estate assets, built Mater Olbia’s infrastructures and plant engineering.

QFE’s investment has been decisive for the effective development of the hospital and has provided an opportunity for mutual benefit both to Italy (which needed to find a partner that could financially contribute to the project) and Qatar – eager to increase its international engagement in projects related to cultural and social development.

By signing an agreement with Gemelli Foundation for the managing of Mater Olbia Hospital, QFE has created an optimal combination of financial strength, skills and a strong network of contacts in the academic world and with the best international hospitals.

FMater Olbia has contributed consistently to the of Regione Sardegna’s healthcare system and the decrease of the so-called “health-tourism” departing from the island.
