Vistula at the 2nd Modern Finance Conference – Autonomous Mobility in Qatar

We are pleased to announce that during the 2nd Modern Finance Conference (MFC), which will take place on 7–9 September 2025 at the University of Warsaw (hybrid format), Tariq Eldakruri from the Vistula University will present his paper. The publication was co-authored with Dr. Edip Senyurek.

During the session on 8 September 2025, from 13:30 to 15:00, the paper entitled “Autonomous Mobility in Qatar: A Techno-Economic and Financial Analysis of Robotaxi Integration” will be presented by Tariq Eldakruri (Department of Economics and Finance, Vistula University) and Dr Edip Senyurek (Department of Computer Engineering, Vistula University).

The presentation addresses the economic and environmental potential of robotaxi integration in Qatar,
in line with the objectives of the Qatar National Vision 2030. Research findings indicate that:

  • robotaxis can reduce operational costs by 20–40%;
  • they can contribute to a 10–20% annual reduction in CO₂ emissions;
  • the key challenges remain the lack of sufficient charging infrastructure and limited public acceptance.

The MFC Conference is one of the most important academic events bringing together economics, finance, and new technologies. The participation of Vistula researchers highlights our University’s growing role in the international debate on sustainable development and innovations in transport.

The research project also has a strong practical dimension: its conclusions can be used by both policymakers and investors planning to implement smart mobility solutions on a national and regional scale. Vistula University thus demonstrates that it combines theory with practice, with our researchers addressing real challenges of today’s economy.
