AVEVA strengthens local presence in Egypt with New Cairo Office
AVEVA, a global leader in industrial software, driving digital transformation and sustainability, has announced its new office in Cairo, Egypt.
This expansion is set to strengthen services and provide enhanced support in the region. AVEVA's new Cairo office is in the same building that Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, of which AVEVA is a subsidiary.
AVEVA's local presence in Egypt will meet the evolving regional needs of its clients and partners, driving industrial efficiency and enabling a future-ready economy in Egypt and beyond. With the ICT sector's contribution to GDP set to reach 8% by 2030, Egypt is positioning itself as a leader in digital transformation. Government-led initiatives like Digital Egypt, supported by EGP 400 million (USD 26 million) for digital upskilling, are equipping a skilled workforce to support businesses through their technological evolution. Aligned with this growth, renewable energy plays a central role in Egypt's Vision 2030, which aims to achieve a diversified, competitive, and sustainable economy.
AVEVA will participate at the Egypt Petroleum Show (EGYPES 2025), taking place at the Egypt International Exhibition Centre in Cairo from February 17 to 19, 2025. Alongside Schneider Electric, AVEVA will showcase its advanced digital solutions, designed to empower energy companies to enhance operational efficiency and drive sustainability while advancing their energy transition objectives.
'Egypt holds significant potential for AVEVA, driven by its strong focus on digital transformation and innovation. As we open our new office in Egypt, we are reinforcing our commitment to supporting the country's industrial growth by investing in local talent and strengthening long-term partnerships. The country's ICT Strategy 2030 also aligns with our vision of empowering industries with our cutting-edge solutions that foster the energy transition and drive measurable emission reductions', said Nayef Bou Chaaya, AVEVA Vice President, Middle East, Africa and Türkiye.
The transition to new energy sources like clean hydrogen demands a fresh approach to transportation, distribution, and regulation. Meeting sustainability challenges while addressing rising energy demands requires advanced technologies, scalable solutions, and strategic partnerships. For existing energy operations, AVEVA's AI-powered solutions enhance operator support, enable predictive maintenance, optimise processes, and improve safety while reducing costs.
At the three-day event, AVEVA will highlight its industry-leading digital solutions, including its recently enhanced AVEVA Unified Engineering software, which now integrates teams and workflows into a collaborative digital environment for more efficient project execution. The company will also present its advanced value chain optimisation tools for end-to-end carbon chain optimisation and how AVEVA PI System can store and track historical asset performance data, enabling advanced predictive maintenance strategies.
AVEVA experts will be available at Stand 2F60, Hall 2 at EGYPES 2025 to showcase how AVEVA's Unified Operations Centre (UOC) provides real-time, AI-driven insights via CONNECT, the world's largest industrial software platform.

Sterling holds its own against stronger dollar, trade optimism lends supports
Sterling ticked higher against the dollar on Thursday, one of the few major currencies to hold its own against the greenback which regained ground after weak U.S. data dragged it lower on Wednesday. The pound was up 0.14% at $1.3574, while against the euro it was up 0.1% at 84.16 pence. Sterling remains a touch away from a more than three-year high hit on May 26, underpinned by ongoing dollar weakness with the pound up over 8% this year. Also helping is the fact the UK is the only country to have struck a trade deal with the U.S and was spared from higher U.S. steel and aluminium tariffs, though analysts question how beneficial those factors are. "The trade deal does matter," said Chris Beauchamp, chief market analyst at IG Group. "You might argue it's not a proper trade deal and that it doesn't solve all the problems, but at least it's a sign that there's a more compelling reason to hold the pound rather than be worrying about the euro," Beauchamp added. The Bank of England (BoE) will meet on June 19 to deliver its next policy decision with market bets firmly on the monetary policy committee (MPC) keeping rates steady. There had been expectations of a further 25 bps cut from the BoE at its June meeting but bets were slashed following weak economic data and a hotter-than-expected inflation read last month. On Tuesday, Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey said he was sticking with a "gradual and careful" approach to cutting interest rates as global trade policy turmoil increasingly clouds the outlook. Reassurance came on Wednesday with a survey showing Britain's services sector returned to tepid growth last month. (Reporting by Lucy Raitano and Johann M Cherian, Editing by Ed Osmond)

Bechtel Secures Major Role in Riyadh's Airport Expansion
Arabian Post Staff -Dubai Bechtel Corporation has been appointed as the delivery partner for three new terminals at King Salman International Airport in Riyadh, marking a significant advancement in one of the world's most ambitious aviation infrastructure projects. The agreement, formalised during a high-profile visit by U.S. President Donald Trump to Saudi Arabia, entrusts the U.S.-based engineering firm with managing the development of a terminal for commercial airlines, Terminal 6 for low-cost carriers, and a private aviation terminal complete with hangars. This collaboration underscores the strengthening infrastructure ties between the United States and Saudi Arabia. ADVERTISEMENT KSIA is poised to become the world's largest airport upon completion, a cornerstone of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 initiative aimed at diversifying the nation's economy and enhancing global connectivity. The airport is designed to handle an anticipated capacity of 185 million passengers and 3.5 million tonnes of cargo annually by 2050. It will feature six parallel runways and encompass an area of 57 square kilometres, integrating advanced sustainable practices to achieve LEED Platinum certification across all terminals. Darren Mort, President of Bechtel's Infrastructure Business, expressed enthusiasm about the project, stating, 'The King Salman International Airport is a landmark project that will reshape Riyadh and enhance the lives and communities it serves.' He highlighted Bechtel's extensive experience in delivering complex airport projects globally, including Hamad International Airport in Qatar, Dubai International Airport in the UAE, and London City Airport in the UK. Marco Mejia, Acting CEO of the King Salman International Airport Development Company, emphasized the project's commitment to innovation and sustainability. He noted that the selection of Bechtel as the delivery partner reflects the project's dedication to elevating aviation infrastructure standards through collaboration with a company possessing over 120 years of global experience. The new terminals are expected to replace existing facilities at King Khalid International Airport, enhancing Riyadh's status as a global hub for transportation, tourism, and trade. The development aligns with Saudi Arabia's broader goals of economic diversification and infrastructure modernization. Bechtel's role in the KSIA project builds upon its longstanding presence in Saudi Arabia, where it has completed over 300 projects, including the recently inaugurated Riyadh Metro. The company's involvement in KSIA signifies a continued commitment to supporting the kingdom's transformative infrastructure initiatives.
