Honeywell and Etisalat Misr, a subsidiary of the Etisalat Group, will develop solutions for smart buildings, communities and cities in Egypt. The companies will collaborate to build a cloud-based IoT platform to help further the advancement of both greenfield and brownfield projects across Egypt.
The companies will target manufacturing, healthcare, hospitality, education, real estate and transportation segments as part of their new collaboration where they will co-develop IoT-based offerings that leverage artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), connecting and hosting technologies.
“This effort builds on the established track record of Honeywell and Etisalat Misr to collaborate and deliver successful smart city projects. It will help further demonstrate the country’s ability to deliver cutting-edge, digital-first solutions to the citizens, companies and visitors of Egypt,” said Khaled Hashem, President, Honeywell, Egypt and North Africa. “By combining our IoT-based solutions and Etisalat Misr’s capabilities in connectivity, we aim to enhance the safety, security and quality of life of citizens while building more sustainable communities across the country.”
The collaboration supports Egypt Vision 2030 by helping to enable digital transformation of key industry sectors across the country and creating a more sustainable environment through the deployment of smart solutions to conserve energy and water consumption and manage waste.
The Honeywell and Etisalat Misr collaboration will explore advanced solutions that will help to create safer and more livable cities and communities for citizens through areas such as improved citizen engagement, public space monitoring, environmental monitoring, improved navigation and connected health systems.
This MoU extends the strategic relationship between Honeywell and Etislat Misr, which has collaborated on the City Operations Center in the New Administrative Capital since 2019.
