Schneider Electric’s headquarters in Egypt, completed in 2022, earned the LEED Gold ID+C V4 certification from USGBC, marking the completion of a landmark project that serves as the MENA region HQ in New Cairo. This project represents a full transformation of the building’s work environment, showcasing Schneider Electric’s commitment to expanding operations and enhancing workplace efficiency through innovative, fully digital spaces. It has been recognized as the workplace of the future in Egypt.
The building spans seven floors with a total area of 12,000 m² and is designed to accommodate over 800 employees, along with all necessary services.

Recognizing the crucial role of workspace design in influencing employee satisfaction and performance, the company aims to foster an atmosphere that inspires innovation.
