Counsel Masters, Platinum Group to host premier real estate showrooms at North Square Mall in Summer 2025
Counsel Masters currently manages and operates Mamsha Ahl Misr in Cairo and North Square Mall, one of New Alamein's most prominent commercial, entertainment, and tourism destinations. The company operates in collaboration with the Ministry of Housing, the New Urban Communities Authority, and City Edge Developments, the project's owner.
Under the newly signed cooperation protocol, real estate showrooms will be set up within North Square Mall to showcase premier developments from top real estate companies. The initiative is expected to drive real estate growth in Egypt's northwestern coast and beyond by attracting both local and Arab investors, ultimately boosting property sales.
George Mitry, Chairperson of Counsel Masters, emphasized the strategic value of the agreement, stating, 'Counsel Masters will provide rental spaces and exclusive benefits for real estate companies, while Platinum Group will leverage its network to bring in leading developers to showcase their projects to visitors.'
Taher Hamdy, Chairperson of T.H Consulting, highlighted the significance of the initiative, noting, 'North Square Mall was selected for this event due to the city's rapid expansion and its emergence as a premier tourism and investment destination.'
This collaboration aligns with Counsel Masters' broader strategy to enhance North Square Mall's commercial appeal. In the summer of 2024, the company successfully doubled the mall's occupancy by introducing over 70 new brands, resulting in a surge of more than 700,000 visitors. For the summer of 2025, the company aims to further increase foot traffic and strengthen North Square Mall's position as a leading destination for tourism, commerce, and real estate investment.

It forms part of the joint efforts to empower national talents and develop their leadership and modern management capabilities, thereby enhancing the government's performance and aligning with future requirements. His Excellency Professor Dr. Saif Ghanem Al Suwaidi emphasized that the partnership between Dubai Courts and the Mohammed Bin Rashid School of Government through the 'Future Leaders Empowerment Program' reflects the institution's vision to build and strengthen the capabilities of its employees, equipping them to meet future challenges with confidence and competence.

It is a path that requires dedication and perseverance.

His Excellency added: 'We take pride in graduating a distinguished group of Dubai Courts employees who have completed an exceptional training journey that combines theoretical knowledge and practical application within an inspiring learning environment.

Our constructive partnership with Dubai Courts reflects a shared commitment to supporting national talent and empowering them to lead the government development journey in the Emirate of Dubai, in line with the aspirations of our leadership to consolidate the UAE's leading status across all sectors.' The training programme was divided into six key pillars, including modern government administration, strategic planning, change management, leadership skills development, and institutional capacity building, reflecting an advanced, forward-looking vision. The curriculum followed an integrated approach, combining world-class theoretical foundations from leading academic sources, with practical application, including interactive workshops, individual mentoring sessions, specialised leadership training, as well as field visits and lectures by top-tier experts and academics. The programme included a series of qualitative leadership assessments, most notably the Gallup Leadership Test, which focuses on strengths-based development, and the Trust and Inspiration exercise, designed to foster positive energy and cultivate an environment conducive to exceptional leadership.

Each participant engaged in an individual mentoring session in the Leadership Style Analysis Lab, which offered an in-depth diagnostic experience that allowed participants to explore their leadership interaction patterns and identify pathways for future development. This personalised engagement improved their ability to plan their professional trajectories with greater clarity, efficiency and confidence. The programme represents a comprehensive national model for empowering government leaders through the effective integration of theory and practice, underpinned by a strong commitment to human capital development. It reflects Dubai Courts' strategic focus on nurturing national talent in line with the Dubai Global Model for Designing and Building the Future, and affirms the Mohammed Bin Rashid School of Government's position as a leading regional authority in executive education and public policy.
