Cairo – Mubasher: Tatweer Misr aims to establish an educational area in its integrated urban community in Mostakbal City over an area of 90 feddans with an investment of EGP 10 billion.

Upon completion in 10 years, the area will include two to three universities, four to six international schools, and an entrepreneurship and innovation centre, the company’s CEO, Ahmed Shalaby, said in a press conference.

The company will invest about EGP 3.5 billion in the first phase of the project, which will extend over 36 feddans, and its completion is scheduled in 2026 and 2027.

The first phase will include a branch of New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), which will be built with an investment of EGP 2 billion.

Spanning over 16 feddans with a building area of about 40,000 square metres (sqm), the institute is expected to accommodate about 3,300 students.
