A day of exploration: The Mivia Installations Tour – 22nd November

On the second day, November 22nd, the delegation will embark on a tour of the Mivia Installations. Mivida, located in New Cairo, is an extension of the Egyptian capital, designed to address the city’s housing challenges. Within this new development, the renowned international architectural firm, L35 (with offices in Madrid), has played a pivotal role in creating significant facilities such as the mall and the landscape and architectural design for the area’s centerpiece, the lake.

Thanks to exploratory visits organized in 2022 and the strong relationships forged among project partners and stakeholders in Egypt, this event is poised to be a catalyst for collaboration and growth. FGOI invites industry professionals to seize this unique opportunity to exchange ideas, collaborate, network, and create new prospects among European and Egyptian partners.

The overarching business mission will unfold from November 21st to 22nd, offering a range of activities and participation opportunities. Attendees can expect to engage in identifying business prospects, explore Cairo Design Week, visit on-site locations, and benefit from knowledge exchange with industry experts.
