New Working Group to drive investment in Ajman
Strategic oversight and leadership Under the resolution, Sheikh Abdulaziz bin Humaid Al Nuaimi, a member of the Executive Council, is tasked with overseeing the Group's activities. He is empowered to issue the necessary regulatory frameworks and appoint a chairman from among the Group's members, ensuring a clear governance structure and effective leadership from within. Broad investment mandate across key sectors The Group, comprising representatives from key investment-related entities, is charged with identifying high-potential global markets and mapping out prime investment opportunities in vital sectors. These include manufacturing, infrastructure, education, the digital economy, and tourism. The overarching goal is to align these efforts with Ajman's economic development priorities and attract impactful investments. Promoting Ajman globally through tailored initiatives As part of its responsibilities, the Group will develop a suite of legislative and procedural incentives tailored to investor needs. In addition, it will organise programs that engage both economic and official delegations, craft a cutting-edge digital marketing strategy to highlight Ajman's competitive advantages, and ensure consistent participation in key global economic events to enhance the emirate's international profile. Building on momentum from strategic partnerships The resolution follows a productive visit by Ajman's government delegation to Chongqing, China, in May, led by H.H. the Crown Prince. The visit marked a turning point in strengthening Ajman's global ties and opened new pathways for cooperation with international partners. The outcomes from that mission are now being formalised and integrated into the Group's strategy to attract and promote investment in the emirate. Alignment with Ajman Vision 2030 The resolution is directly linked to the broader aspirations of Ajman Vision 2030, with the Group's performance measured against clear benchmarks. These include increases in total investment inflow, the number of international companies establishing operations in Ajman, growth in GDP attributed to new investments, and greater investor trust in the emirate's economic landscape. Organisational structure and mandate The Group has been granted a renewable two-year mandate. Its work will be supported institutionally and administratively by the General Secretariat of the Executive Council, in coordination with relevant local and federal authorities. This ensures full alignment with both Ajman's and the UAE's overarching economic policies. Enhancing Ajman's investment climate This initiative embodies the Ajman government's integrated vision to enhance its investment climate. It is expected to stimulate the flow of high-value projects, expand the emirate's economic base, and reinforce Ajman's status as an increasingly attractive destination for global investors.

TITAN Egypt achieves dual sustainability milestones for its plants
Cairo, Egypt – TITAN Egypt proudly announces its achievement of two major environmental certifications, reinforced by an investment of EGP 227.2 million in 2024 in the field of environmental protection. This initiative reflects TITAN's ongoing commitment to its sustainability objectives and reinforces the company's roadmap for reducing carbon emissions, in line with TITAN Group's green growth strategy. These major certifications include obtaining Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for all cement products across its Alexandria and Beni Suef plants, and the successful completion of ISO verification of its 2024 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory following EN ISO 14064-1:2019. The EPDs provide internationally recognized, third-party verified data on the environmental impacts of TITAN Egypt's cement products across their full lifecycle—from raw material extraction to production. These declarations enable customers to make more informed, sustainable procurement decisions and meet the requirements of green building certifications such as LEED, BREEAM, and EDGE. These achievements, underscored by our recent certifications, demonstrate our commitment to climate responsibility, data transparency, and continuous improvement, marking a significant step forward in TITAN Egypt's ambition to lead the construction materials sector toward a lower-carbon future," said Amr Reda, CEO of TITAN Egypt. He added, "They enhance our ability to support customers in meeting their sustainability goals, while strengthening our own decarbonization roadmap in line with TITAN Group's Green Growth strategy. This is further underscored by our EGP 227.2 million investment in environmental protection for 2024, representing an approximate 48% increase compared to our 2023 expenditures." "Verification is no longer just a compliance exercise; it's a credibility benchmark," commented Amr Nader, CEO of A³&Co. "We are pleased to support TITAN Egypt in this strategic shift, as the advisory support serving as an end-to-end strategic partner, from emissions inventory design to audit readiness, reflecting both operational discipline and climate foresight." TITAN Egypt has undergone a rigorous third-party verification of its 2024 GHG emissions inventory for both plants, with an audit by EUROCERT confirming the accuracy and completeness of emissions data across Scope 1, 2, and selected Scope 3 categories. This provides a strong baseline for future climate actions, as TITAN in Egypt is actively implementing its vision through a focused sustainability agenda that addresses both global imperatives and local challenges. Efforts include increasing the use of alternative fuels, improving energy and resource efficiency, and introducing lower-carbon building solutions.
