OHK will take part in the 7th Annual Cityscape Egypt Conference, the International Property, Investment, and Development event for regional and international real estate industry to discuss the future of urban areas in the Middle East and the real estate industry in Egypt. This year’s conference theme is Energizing the Market and Re-Instating Confidence.
OHK’s Ahmed Hassan Okelly, Hoda Hamdy, and Ala Nasser will lead OHK’s participation in the event. Ahmed will speak to an audience of top-level industry professionals and lead with an expert panel a roundtable focusing on the key steps required to revive Egypt’s older cities through innovative design, management, and technology.
OHK will showcase its Historic Cairo renewal scheme to a gathering of over 250 top-level industry professionals, city planners and management specialists, policy-makers, and private sector developers. A display of the Downtown urban regeneration masterplan and hundreds of OHK proposed revival development projects will be previewed in a follow-up, invitation-only event. This will include the Middle East’s first regeneration scale models of historic cores in Cairo, including the revival of the famed, 1800s-built, Opera Square. Photo courtesy of Cityscape Egypt.
OHK will share its work from managing a national initiative for the revival of Historic Cairo and how urban renewal, services’ diversification, public space, and smart infrastructure can give new life to inner Egyptian cities and heritage cores, not only in Cairo, but also in Alexandria, and the Nile Delta and Valley. In addition, Ahmed will share OHK’s best-practice work and lessons learned from other cities around the world, especially our work in Vienna, Budapest and San Francisco.
