HP Solidifies Its Presence in Egypt To Support Vision 2030
HP announces the opening of its office in Cairo and plans to expand its local presence, especially by expanding its teams over the coming three years. The company is scaling its operations to meet the country's rising demand for technology that enables business agility, talent development, and increasingly inclusive economic growth. A channel partners event in Cairo this week brings together 250 local and international stakeholders to explore how the company's solutions can help drive innovation and support digital transformation across all sectors.
'Egypt has set a clear direction with Vision 2030 and the Digital Egypt Strategy – putting technology, education, and innovation at the center of national development,' said Helena Herrero, President of HP Southern Europe, Middle East and Africa. 'This creates a strong environment for companies like HP to support national goals through technology, skills development, and innovation.'
Making technology available to as many people as possible and bringing the latest technologies to businesses to support their growth is a strategic priority for HP. In particular, the company supports the shift toward more flexible, digitally connected workplaces through secure hybrid infrastructure, AI-enabled devices, and advanced print technologies. These capabilities are particularly relevant as Egypt focuses on expanding digital access, modernizing education, and preparing a future-ready workforce.
'With the largest portfolio of solutions across personal systems, printers, collaboration systems, peripherals and services, HP is uniquely positioned to put the benefits of AI in the hands of businesses and employees. One of our strengths is that we have always worked and continue to work with a large ecosystem of industry-leading partners, as well as distribution partners, to offer our users the best experiences', Herrero concluded.
By expanding its local footprint and network, HP aims to support the people, the partners and the skills that will help build a digitally enabled workforce and support Egypt's broader ambitions and the future of work, especially to strengthen the digital infrastructure, develop the growth of SMEs and improve access to technology in the public and private sectors.

Saudi Arabia's annual inflation accelerates to 2.3% in June
Inflation in Saudi Arabia accelerated to 2.3% in June compared to the same month last year and was also up slightly from 2.2% in May, government data showed on Tuesday. Inflation has hovered between 2% and 2.3% since the beginning of this year, mainly driven by rises in housing rents. It stood at 1.5% in June last year. Rents for housing increased by 7.6% due to villa prices rising by 7.1%, the General Authority for Statistics said. Housing was the primary reason for prices in the combined housing, water, electricity, gas and other fuels category climbing to 6.5%. The Saudi government last month announced steps to balance Riyadh's real estate market, including setting aside some price-capped plots for Saudi citizens. Saudi Arabia also recently approved a new Real Estate Ownership and Investment Law, which will ease property purchases by foreigners when it takes effect next year. Saudi Arabia is in the process of building several massive new developments around Riyadh as part of its Vision 2030 program of diversifying the economy away from oil and boosting both tourism and the private sector. The new law is expected to balance out supply and demand in the long term, but is dependent on the success of the city's real estate projects getting completed on schedule. The International Monetary Fund expects Saudi inflation to remain steady at around 2%, supported by the riyal's peg to the U.S. dollar, domestic subsidies and "an elastic supply of expatriate labor".
