Green Roofs to Riyadh's Deepest Metro: Schaduf's Journey into Saudi

Inside the landscape firm's most complex project to date: a 36-metre-deep green wall at Qasr Al Hukm metro station. When Sherif Hosni, Co-Founder of Cairo-based landscape firm Schaduf, talks about Qasr Al Hukm, there's a noticeable pause before he calls it what it is: the flagship. 'It's the biggest project we've completed,' he tells SceneHome. Schaduf began with a shared passion for sustainability—specifically, green roofs—and grew from there. But over time, one thing became clear: Saudi was the biggest market. It wasn't easy. Establishing a business presence in the Kingdom came with its own set of hurdles. But a strategic partnership in 2018 helped unlock the opportunity, and by 2022, Schaduf had opened a formal office in Saudi Arabia—just in time to take on its largest challenge yet. Qasr Al Hukm is one of Riyadh's main metro stations, part of the city's broader infrastructure transformation. At its core is a green wall designed and executed entirely by Schaduf—spanning 36 metres underground. Unlike earlier projects where Schaduf might have handed over execution to a local partner, this time they did it all themselves—from design to installation. They now oversee maintenance and operations, too. Today, Qasr Al Hukm represents more than just a completed project. It's proof of capability. And it marks the beginning of Schaduf's regional expansion.

Progressio's Plan to Power Egypt's Economy Through Invention

Spearheaded by Progressio, 1 Million Minds is reimagining innovation in Egypt by fostering inventors and creating the infrastructure to turn local ideas into global industries. Progressio's movement isn't chasing hype. It's building a new economic engine - by spotlighting inventors, commercializing IP, and fixing the innovation supply chain from the inside out. Egypt's next wave of growth won't come from logistics apps or fintech plays—at least not if Progressio has anything to say about it. The Cairo-based technology R&D firm is leading a bold new initiative called 1 Million Minds, a movement designed not to fund the next startup, but to foster the next inventor. It's not just a branding distinction. It's a philosophy. 'Entrepreneurs are already being supported in Egypt. What we've never properly invested in are the inventors,' says Yoeil Ashraf, founder and CEO of Progressio. 'Those who build new things. Those who innovate at the core product level. 1 Million Minds is here to change that.' A Movement, Not a Center At its heart, 1 Million Minds isn't a campaign, an incubator, or even a government program. It's a national movement—founded and spearheaded by Progressio—meant to embed invention, R&D, and intellectual property into the cultural and economic DNA of Egypt. Rather than chase venture funding or quick exits, OMM is focused on long-term impact. It's building public platforms, storytelling pipelines, educational programs, and incentive models that bring inventors out of the shadows and into the center of national development. Its founding belief is simple: if inventors are supported—technically, financially, and emotionally—they will build the products that solve Egypt's biggest problems, and ultimately fuel unprecedented economic growth. Why Inventors, Why Now? Egypt has no shortage of bright minds. But without visibility, protection, or infrastructure, most innovations never make it past the prototype stage. 'We're not short on talent,' Yoeil says. 'We're short on systems that recognize and reward invention.' Progressio sees a gap in how innovation is defined and supported. Entrepreneurs are coached to pitch and scale, but inventors—those working in materials science, med-tech, food engineering, and software IP—often lack access to legal frameworks, commercialization support, or even cultural recognition. OMM's goal is to flip that script. The KPIs of a Movement This isn't about inspiration alone. 1 Million Minds is built on measurable inflection points. Progressio has identified three historic benchmarks it's working toward: 1. The first Egyptian millionaire inventor, through royalties generated from licensed IP 2. The first startup to secure investment or acquisition based on intellectual property alone 3. The first corporate R&D investment into a locally developed invention These aren't hypotheticals. Progressio is building the support systems—legal, educational, media, and financial—to make them real. Beyond Inspiration: Building Infrastructure OMM's strategy operates across multiple verticals: * Education and awareness, demystifying IP law, R&D, and commercialization * Cultural storytelling, positioning inventors as national heroes through awards, documentaries, and public events * Community building, with mentorship programs and regional bootcamps * Visibility and recognition, turning invention into something aspirational, not obscure 'We believe that if we create an environment where inventors are incentivized, rewarded, and integrated into our innovation supply chain, we won't just fix our economic problems—we'll redefine what growth looks like for Egypt,' Yoeil says. A Parallel Track: The NCTC While 1 Million Minds takes the cultural and community lead, another Progressio-led initiative will provide the technical backbone. Launching in mid-2025, the National Center for Technology Commercialization (NCTC) is a separate but complementary project. Designed as a national platform for tech transfer and commercialization, the NCTC will focus on IP protection, licensing support, startup assistance, and industry collaboration—particularly in sectors like agriculture, energy, healthcare, and IT. The NCTC is where invention will be translated into viable business. 1 Million Minds is where invention becomes a national cause. Fixing the Chain, Fueling the Future Skeptics may ask whether a country can really build an innovation economy on invention alone. Progressio's bet is that it can—if invention is supported systemically, not sporadically. And in a region where innovation is often imported or licensed in, OMM offers a different thesis: that Egypt has the raw intellectual firepower to lead, not just follow, and that if that power is unlocked at scale, the results won't just be social—they'll be seismic. 'This isn't a campaign,' Yoeil says. 'It's a new foundation for how we grow.'

How a Dubai-Based Palestinian Brand Bottles Heritage

How a Dubai-Based Palestinian Brand Bottles Heritage At some point in our diaspora timelines- between explaining where we're really from, passport queues and WhatsApp voice notes about political heartbreak- we begin hoarding things that taste like home. Fragrant spices in ziploc bags. Date syrup and honey in repurposed jam jars. That one specific za'atar or sumac mix your cousin swears by. It's not a habit. It's survival. Isra Abu Zayed, the Palestinian-Canadian academic and storyteller, wearing her heritage like the keffiyeh draped over her grandmother's shoulder, knows this ache. But unlike most of us who stash bottles of olive oil between our socks on the way back from Amman or Beirut, she decided to build a business around it. For Isra Abu Zayed, home has always been a matter of the palate rather than the postcode. Growing up in Toronto, she might have sat at a kitchen table far from the olive groves of the West Bank, but every Friday morning wafts of za'atar-dusty bread, the sweet stickiness of knafeh and, most of all, the green-gold glimmer of olive oil were reminders of a place she never really saw, but always knew. 'I'm Palestinian through and through,' Isra tells SceneNowUAE 'My parents made sure our identity shaped every part of how we moved through the world.' Schoolyard taunts and classroom maps couldn't erase the stories they shared at home- tales of harvests, of farmers who tended trees older than most nations, of olive-pressed rituals handed down through it wasn't until her six year old daughter wanted to learn more about her heritage and share that- 'a bottle of that season's oil for her teacher'- that Isra realised how tangible that connection could become. And just like that, a bottle of olive oil turned into a passport. In 2021, out of that realisation, Zeit Bladi came into being. From a single family-run farm in the West Bank, where Nabali trees can take twenty years to bear their first fruit, the olives are hand-picked only when village elders decree they're ready. They are cold-pressed within hours of harvest, then travel by land through Jordan to Dubai, arriving as spring's first bottles: limited seasonal drops that turn anticipation into ritual. 'We only sell what the land gives us each season,' Isra explains. 'It's not about scale; it's about honouring history, community and resilience- one small bottle at a time.'
