Six months after partnering with The Arab
Organization for Industrialization, Iveda solidifies leadership in
5G, AI, and sustainable technologies throughout the region
Iveda® (NASDAQ:IVDA), the global solution for cloud-based AI,
today announced the opening of a new office in Cairo, Egypt as part
of the organization’s work with The Arab Organization for
Industrialization (AOI). Just six months after partnering with AOI,
the showcase space––located inside the AOI government facility in
Cairo––will serve as a demonstration room, putting Iveda’s smart
city innovations and AI offerings on functional display, with the
ability to demo to all interested parties. This announcement
further solidifies the organization’s foothold as a leader in 5G,
AI, and sustainable technologies throughout Egypt and the greater
EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) region.
Iveda’s smart city innovations and AI offerings on display
include the Utilus Smart Pole with an average price to
municipalities of $35,000 per pole, and city deployments are
anticipated to range from 100 to 1,000 Utilus Smart Poles (or $3.5
million to $35 million) depending on the size of coverage
required.
Iveda and AOI partnered in August of 2023 to support and scale
smart city developments across Egypt and the wider EMEA region
through the development of 13 smart cities. In support of the
Egyptian government’s plans to introduce 38 new smart cities across
the country by 2050, the two entities are marrying Iveda’s global
IoT and AI technology and application expertise with AOI’s regional
demand for innovation, equipping Egypt's new administrative capital
with the 5th generation smart city technology needed to make this
goal a reality.
Egypt's AI market is projected to reach $601.8 Million with an
anticipated annual growth rate of 18.99%, resulting in a market
volume of $2.03 Billion by 2030. This strategic office will
dramatically improve speed-to-market of Iveda technologies by
providing easier access to hands-on education, sales
demonstrations, marketing opportunities, and firsthand
proof-of-concept verification to those in the region. Major General
Ashraf Hassan––who was appointed to Iveda’s Advisory Board in
August 2023––will play a critical role in showcasing Iveda’s
technologies, capabilities, and value to government and private
enterprises across Egypt. Additionally, AOI will actively promote
the value that local production of Iveda products is bringing to
the area, in terms of both job and economic opportunities.
“Oftentimes, when it comes to new and advanced
technologies––especially in the artificial intelligence and smart
city realm––seeing is believing. That’s why we’re collaborating
with AOI to make it easier for people in and around Egypt to visit
and experience Iveda’s core technology firsthand,” said David Ly,
CEO and founder of Iveda. “We’re eager to get our products into the
hands of more organizations and government officials throughout the
region, all while optimizing the decision-making process with
potential customers and partners.”
Iveda has also been working with partners in South Africa,
building up multi-million-dollar pipelines of opportunities. These
clients are eager to witness Iveda’s offerings and the Cairo space
will provide a convenient destination for the African market to
experience the tech hands-on. Iveda products and technology to be
displayed for live demonstration at the new Cairo location will
include IvedaAI, Iveda Smart Drone, IvedaCare, and IvedaEMS through
Cerebro. For more information, please visit iveda.com.
