Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani, chairman of Reliance Industries (NSE:RELI), is set to meet U.S. President Donald Trump and Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani in Doha on Wednesday, according to sources cited by Reuters. The meeting underscores Ambani’s growing international presence as he deepens strategic ties with both the United States and Qatar.
Ambani will attend a state dinner hosted for Trump at the Lusail Palace but reportedly has no scheduled investment or business negotiations during the visit. A second source confirmed another prominent London-based Indian business figure close to both the Trump and Qatari administrations will also be in attendance, although they did not disclose the identity.
Reliance Industries, one of India’s largest conglomerates, has longstanding connections with U.S. tech giants including Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) and Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META). Additionally, Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), the country’s sovereign wealth fund, has previously invested in several Reliance ventures, further reinforcing the ties between Ambani’s empire and Qatar.
The high-profile gathering follows a recent visit by Qatar’s Emir to India in February, during which Qatar pledged $10 billion in investments across various sectors. This visit highlights the emirate’s growing economic engagement with India and Reliance’s potential role in facilitating this partnership.
President Trump’s Middle East tour continues with a visit to the United Arab Emirates on Thursday. His trip is reportedly focused on fostering investment opportunities rather than addressing regional security concerns.
Reliance has not issued an official comment regarding Ambani’s agenda in Doha.
This development places Ambani at the center of a key geopolitical and business dialogue, as global investment dynamics shift amid growing interest in India’s booming economy and digital transformation.
