Metito, the world’s leading company and provider of integrated smart solutions for water management and treatment, organized a workshop to review its most important projects in water desalination and sewage treatment and its partnership in projects developed within the framework of implementing the state’s strategy to bridge the water gap, enhance water security, and achieve sustainable development goals within Egypt’s Vision 2030.
The workshop comes within the context of presenting and discussing a number of important and vital issues related to water, including the state’s strategy for desalination and water treatment projects, an overview of the water future and available opportunities, and the introduction of the latest and most innovative desalination projects through floating stations, a senior company official said.
Karim Medawar, Managing Director of Metito Africa Group, added that the Egyptian state has allocated hundreds of billions to implement an ambitious plan, considered the largest in the Middle East region, to implement huge water projects. This plan is being integrated with the seawater desalination strategy, through working on implementing many new projects to develop and operate certain projects for water desalination, sewage treatment, and agricultural drainage treatment and recycling.
These projects seek to achieve the sustainability of natural resources and the distribution of stations to different places throughout the republic according to demand and need.
“The Egyptian state has been keen since the beginning to engage private companies enjoying global and local expertise in mega projects as part of the state’s strategy to support and benefit from the private sector and make it part of the comprehensive development process,” Medawar said.
He added that with a quota of 20% of Metito’s business in Africa, there is a growing trend of company’s projects in Egypt due to the increasing infrastructure projects implemented by the government in the sectors of electricity, roads, tunnels, and ports, as well as water stations.
