MADKOUR Developments

Commenting on the launch, Eng. Hesham Madkour, Vice President of MADKOUR Holding, stated that the selection of the group’s first real estate development project at the New Capital was based on a thorough study of market dynamics and future demand.

Madkour said that the Financial District stands out as one of the most promising locations for generating sustainable, long-term value for administrative and business assets.
Eng. Ahmed Attia, CEO of MADKOUR Developments, disclosed that MDK Business Complex is the company’s first venture into real estate development and has been designed to introduce a new concept for administrative buildings.

He added that the complex adopts Open Business Campus model, reflecting global shifts toward more flexible and contemporary work environments.

Attia noted that the company views this project as a benchmark for its future developments in real estate sector, built on a foundation of quality, discipline, and carefully selected locations, with the aim of creating solid assets that preserve their value and deliver stable, long-term returns.

The complex features three interconnected administrative buildings set within open-air plazas and comprehensive service zones, fostering a dynamic and flexible work environment tailored to the requirements of multinational corporations, financial institutions, and banks, while encouraging collaboration and interaction among tenants.

The company’s CEO highlighted that a key competitive advantage of the project is that it is already completed and ready for inspection, enabling delivery and full operation within one year, and thereby offering a quicker return on investment compared to traditional developments—especially in light of the rising demand for ready-to-use administrative offices in the New Capital.

 

 


He further explained that the project enjoys prime location, thoughtful planning, and high-quality execution, indicated that the group deliberately chose to make its market debut with a development that is exceptional in every detail, showcasing its proven track record and extensive experience in executing large-scale projects.

“MDK Business Complex is designed as a sustainable administrative project capable of keeping pace with the rapid transformations in modern work environments, rather than being just a traditional office building, Attia said. “Additionally, the project’s location within the Financial District provides the development with a genuine competitive advantage, both in terms of operation efficiency and investment appeal.”

He further stated that the management and operation of MDK Business Complex will be handled by MADKOUR Facility Management, ensuring optimal operation efficiency, sustainability, energy conservation, and reduced operating costs, thereby enhancing long-term value of real estate asset.

For his part, Mohamed Attia, Chief Sales Officer at MADKOUR Developments, described the project as a prime investment opportunity, citing its strategic location in the Financial District, immediate availability, and innovative, non-traditional office concept.

Attia added that the company is focusing on clients looking for ready-to-occupy headquarters that adhere to international standards, suitable for both immediate use and long-term investment.

He further elaborated that the project’s launch is strategically timed to coincide with the rapid expansion of the New Capital and the rising demand for premium office spaces, concluded that MDK Business Complex firmly establishes MADKOUR Developments in a strong competitive position from its very first entry into the market.

Cairo Capital Developments set to deliver its third project, Lake West 2, in 2026

Cairo Capital Developments reaffirms its commitment to on-time delivery across all projects, guided by a strategic approach that combines advanced planning, parallel execution, and disciplined financial management, ensuring sustainable growth and safeguarding clients’ rights.

Cairo Capital Developments

Yasser Khalaf, Chairman of Cairo Capital Developments, stated that the company operates according to a clear, publicly announced timeline for each project, which is strictly adhered to.
He said that the company’s ability to execute multiple projects simultaneously reflects the strength of its administrative and financial structure, rather than merely an expansion in the number of developments.

He added that Cairo Capital’s philosophy focuses on delivering fully completed projects, rather than merely achieving construction progress milestones. This is clearly demonstrated in the Lake West 1 project, spread over 23 acres, which has been delivered in full, including all infrastructure, and is already inhabited, reflecting the project’s readiness for living—not just for occupancy.

Khalaf disclosed that the company has fully completed the Lake West Extension project, with clients already beginning to finish their units. The development stretches over 20 acres. Further, the company has completed the construction works for Lake West 2, located on 14 acres, with all structural works finalized.

Cairo Capital is currently completing landscaping and final finishes, following a scheduled delivery plan in 2026 to ensure the project’s quality and the integrity of its elements, he noted, added that work is progressing steadily on Lake West 3, scheduled for delivery in 2027, with approximately 50% of the construction completed according to the approved timeline.

Cairo Capital’s chairman pointed out that the company has also obtained the ministerial approval for Lake West 4 and is preparing to commence construction once all permits are secured—a move that reflects the company’s focus on measured, strategic expansion rather than rapid, unplanned growth.

 


He elaborated that the company’s latest launch, Lake West 5, aligns with its strategy to maximize the value of each project.

Khalaf concluded that Cairo Capital focuses on developing low-density residential communities, including villas, townhouses, and twin houses, specifically in Sheikh Zayed, particularly along Dahshour corridor, in response to evolving market demand.

Egyptian Remittances from workers abroad have continued their impressive upward trend,

reaching a historic record of USD 37.5 billion during the period of January to November 2025.

This represents a significant increase of 42.5% compared to the same period in 2024 The rise

in remittances highlights the increasing role of Egyptians working abroad in contributing to

the country’s economy

Record-Breaking Increase in Remittances from Egyptians Abroad

According to data released by the Central Bank of Egypt, remittances from Egyptians

working abroad have surged dramatically, hitting a new all-time high of approximately USD

37.5 billion in the period of January-November 2025 This marked a 42.5% increase from

the USD 26.3 billion recorded during the same period in 2024. This impressive rise in remittances

is a clear indicator of the continued support Egyptians abroad provide to their home country’s economy.

Egyptian Remittances Significant Monthly Growth in November 2025

When analyzing monthly figures, November 2025 saw a remarkable rise in remittances,

increasing by 39.9% compared to November 2024 In November 2025, the total remittances

amounted to around USD 3.6 billion, compared to USD 2.6 billion in the same month the previous

year This sharp rise further emphasizes the growing financial inflows and the positive economic impact

of Egyptians working abroad.

The Role of Remittances in Egypt’s Economic Stability

Remittances continue to play a vital role in strengthening Egypt’s foreign currency

reserves and supporting the local economy They are essential in bridging the gap in

the country’s balance of payments and help maintain the stability of the Egyptian pound.

With continued growth in this area, the reliance on remittances from Egyptian expatriates

is expected to remain strong.

Factors Behind the Growth in Remittances

Several factors contribute to the surge in remittances from Egyptians abroad, including:

Improved Economic Conditions: In countries where many Egyptians are employed,

economic recovery has led to higher incomes, enabling greater remittance transfers.

Government Initiatives: The Central Bank of Egypt and government policies have made it

easier for Egyptians abroad to transfer money, with favorable exchange rates and incentives

Egyptian Remittances for expatriates to send money home.

Stability in Currency Exchange Rates: A stable exchange rate has encouraged

expatriates to remit larger sums, maximizing the value of their earnings in Egypt.

Future Outlook for Egyptian Remittances

Given the continuous upward trajectory of remittances, it is expected that the Central Bank

of Egyptian Remittances will continue to monitor these inflows closely, ensuring that policies are in place to

further stimulate remittance growth The strong performance of remittances is likely to remain

a crucial element in supporting Egypt’s economic recovery in 2026 and beyond.

The significant rise in remittances from Egyptians working abroad throughout 2025 underscores

their importance to the national economy With a historic high of USD 37.5 billion and a monthly

surge of 39.9% in November, this trend is expected to continue, contributing positively to Egypt’s

economic stability and development.

“Al-Qimmah” highlights on initiatives and projects linked to the goals of 2030 vision, focusing the concepts of real estate innovation, sustainability, and smart urban development, as these factors made the Saudi market a leading model and an attractive destination for investors and developers across the Gulf and the Middle East.

 

The podcast also provides analytical content in-depth, by hosting a select group of top developers, investors, real estate experts, and decision-makers, serving as a knowledge resource for understanding the dynamics of real estate markets, investment mechanisms, and growth opportunities.

 

“Al-Qimmah” is not limited to the Saudi market; it also covers developments in the real estate markets of UAE, Qatar, Oman, and Bahrain, in addition to an episode dedicated to the Egyptian real estate market, providing a comprehensive overview of investment experiences in the region.

 

The podcast is presented in a professional media format, starting with a brief introduction, followed by the main dialogue segment, “Al-Qimmah Dialogue,” and then an interactive segment called “Al-Qimmah Catalog,” which provides practical information and advice in a simplified style that helps viewers make more informed and confident investment decisions.
