Inside El Gouna's Regus: A New Work Rhythm by the Water
Inside El Gouna's Regus: A New Work Rhythm by the Water
Regus opens its latest flexible workspace in El Gouna, offering entrepreneurs and remote teams a thoughtfully designed space to work, meet, and grow within one of Egypt's most serene towns.
It's 10 AM in El Gouna, and someone is pitching an investor over coffee with a view of the marina. Two tables over, a fintech founder is onboarding a new hire remotely. Upstairs, a wellness entrepreneur is prepping the itinerary for her retreat. It's Tuesday at Regus El Gouna.
Set in the calm precision of Fanadir Marina, the newest Regus location doesn't just offer desks and WiFi but a shift in perspective. For founders, creatives, and teams working remotely, it's the kind of place that makes space not only for productivity, but for the pace you want your life to move at.
The interiors are minimal, light-filled, and intentionally designed to get you into flow. Private offices, co-working lounges, meeting rooms and breakout areas are all arranged with the understanding that work happens in different modes. Some days are for quiet focus. Others need room for collaboration. Here, both are built in.
This is Regus' 18th location in Egypt, and one of the very few outside of Cairo. But El Gouna isn't an outpost. It's a living model for integrated work-life environments, where business infrastructure meets coastal ease, and no one's rushing through gridlock to get to a 9 AM call.
There's a reason El Gouna feels like it was made for this moment. It has schools, cultural centers, clinics, fitness hubs, and food that rivals any city restaurant scene, all connected by bike and walking paths, clean air, and a community that actually knows each other's names.
Professionals here aren't stepping away from ambition. They're just recalibrating how and where that ambition unfolds. And spaces like Regus El Gouna offer the architecture to support that recalibration, practical, polished, and embedded within a town that rewards momentum without forcing speed.
The hybrid model doesn't need explaining anymore. What it needs is better places to land. At Fanadir Marina, one just opened its doors.

I flew first class with United. It was so great that I started upgrading all my flights.
For my birthday last year, I decided to treat myself to something new — a first-class flight on United Airlines. I figured the trip would be more comfortable than the ones I was used to in economy, but I didn't expect how much the flight would change my outlook on travel. Afterward, I started upgrading all my flights, but my recent United first-class experience is still one of my favorites. There was plenty of room to relax on my United flight My first-class seat on United offered plenty of legroom and was perfect for a long flight. The only drawback was that on one leg of my trip, I was in the front row, and the seat didn't have space for my personal belongings. But the additional legroom made up for this minor inconvenience. For once, I actually felt like I could stretch out, kick back, and enjoy the flight rather than just count down the hours until it was over. United's in-flight service was exceptional During my flight, it felt like the United crew went out of their way to make me feel special. As soon as I boarded, a flight attendant greeted me by name and offered me a mimosa and warm towel before takeoff — a nice touch that set the tone for the flight. Throughout the trip, they checked in regularly without being overbearing. Little gestures such as keeping my drink filled or offering additional snacks made a big difference and elevated the experience. The meals were worth the upgrade When it was time for the meal service, I had low expectations. After all, I don't typically expect to get a premium dining experience in the air. But United's first-class meals surprised me. I was able to preorder my meals 48 hours before takeoff on the United app, which ensured I got exactly what I wanted. For breakfast, I had scrambled eggs with red peppers, sautéed spinach, and potatoes. The tray also included a croissant, fresh fruit, and yogurt. It was simple but delicious. On the return flight, I ordered a chicken dish for dinner, which I enjoyed. The meat was tender and paired with well-seasoned potatoes, broccoli, and a roll. The meal was simple, satisfying, and way better than what I would usually expect from airplane food. Overall, I was incredibly impressed by United Everything about my flight — including the thoughtful service and the surprisingly good food — felt elevated. One downside of my United flight was that free WiFi wasn't included. WiFi access would've cost $8, and I could've purchased it with miles, but I chose not to add it since the in-flight entertainment was more than enough for my four-hour journey. Though it would've been nice to have complimentary WiFi, I didn't think it took away from the overall experience, and I'm looking forward to my next flight with United.

Italian fashion group OTB opens subsidiary in Mexico
OTB has stepped up a gear in Latin America. The Italian fashion group, owner of denim label Diesel and of luxury labels like Viktor & Rolf and Maison Margiela, has set up a subsidiary in Mexico in order to consolidate its presence 'in another major North American country, besides the USA and Canada,' as OTB stated in a press release. In 2024, OTB created a corporate entity in the country's capital, Mexico City, the focus of its local operations and main investments. The newly created company's goal is to oversee the operations and direct retail expansion in Mexico of the Diesel, Jil Sander, Marni and Maison Margiela labels, including the latter's contemporary line, MM6. OTB has also inked a partnership deal with luxury department store chain El Palacio de Hierro, a household name in Mexico, a group that is over a century old and owns 31 stores. OTB is keen to expand in states like 'Guadalajara, Monterrey, León, Cancún, Puebla and Querétaro, by opening monobrand stores and concessions.' In Mexico, it's aiming to grow its online and offline retail footprint, and to intensify its marketing activity. The group is set to open approximately 50 new stores in the next five years, 15 of them scheduled in 2025. In 2024, OTB generated revenue of €1.8 billion, down 5.2%. Its sales in Asia slumped, except for Japan, but they grew by 13.3% in North America. Establishing a corporate presence in Mexico is proof of OTB's desire to find new markets, while maintaining its momentum in regions where its performance is stronger. OTB has struck a joint-venture deal with the Chalhoub group in the Middle East, where it is already present, to step up the pace of its retail expansion in the region. 'Mexico is an influential creative and cultural country with its own distinctive style and vibrancy. Establishing a direct presence for our group in the region is a key step in the growth path of our brands, and in building a closer, more authentic connection with local customers and this amazing country,' said Rosso, founder and president of OTB.
