SouthMED by TMG Brings World-Class Thinkers to Egypt's North Coast
At SouthMED by TMG, a new chapter in cultural curation unfolds—bringing global thought leaders to Egypt's North Coast for an unprecedented speaker series.
What happens when you bring some of the world's most compelling minds together—not in Davos, not in Silicon Valley, but on the shores of Egypt's North Coast? This summer, SouthMED Talks by TMG is answering that question with a bold new speaker series that reimagines intellectual engagement as part of the summer lifestyle.
Set against the backdrop of SouthMED by TMG, this private event series invites an exclusive audience into close conversation with some of the most influential thinkers of our time.
The lineup is nothing short of remarkable. On July 4, Paul Collier, the celebrated Oxford economist behind The Bottom Billion, will unpack the future of development and global responsibility. One week later on July 11, Jason Silva, the viral futurist and former Brain Games host, will guide guests through an electrifying exploration of consciousness, creativity, and emerging technology.
On July 18, Mo Gawdat, former Chief Business Officer at Google X and author of Solve for Happy, brings his visionary framework for engineered happiness and AI ethics to the North Coast. On August 1, the series welcomes tech legend Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple and a cornerstone of the digital age, reflecting on innovation, invention, and the future of human-machine collaboration.
Each of these names has graced global stages—from TED to the World Economic Forum—but this marks the first time any of them will speak in Egypt.
And the lineup doesn't end there. Further speakers will be announced in the coming weeks, expanding a summer programme already poised to reshape the cultural rhythm of Sahel. With SouthMED Talks, TMG is creating space for conversations that go beyond entertainment and escapism—championing a summer of ideas, dialogue, and curiosity.

TMG hits EGP 470bn in sales, outpacing top 9 competitors combined: Hisham Talaat Moustafa
Talaat Moustafa Group (TMG) has achieved record sales, generating EGP 470bn in revenue since the beginning of 2024, according to CEO Hisham Talaat Moustafa. This figure surpasses the combined sales of the top nine real estate companies in Egypt, solidifying TMG's position as the leading real estate developer in both Egypt and the Middle East. Moustafa attributed the group's success to its innovative and modern approach to developing sustainable cities and real estate projects. All TMG projects utilize artificial intelligence technology, which optimizes energy and water consumption while reducing the need for human resources. 'We have relied on innovative and modern ideas in developing our cities and real estate projects,' Moustafa said during his presentation at the World Urban Forum. 'All of Talaat Moustafa Group's projects are currently managed using artificial intelligence technology, which significantly reduces energy, water consumption, and the need for human resources.' TMG has also partnered with international companies, such as Huawei, to implement smart and sustainable city management systems across its projects. Currently, TMG cities house 1.2 million residents and are projected to reach 2 million within the next seven years upon completion of the 'Noor' and 'SouthMed' projects. The Madinaty project alone has generated EGP 100bn in revenue for the government. The group's international ventures have also been successful, starting with the launch of the 'Benan' project in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Following the success of this project, TMG is expanding into the Iraqi market. This expansion, along with the group's ongoing international sales efforts, is increasing foreign exchange earnings. 'We have another successful experience with the Ministry of Housing in the SouthMed project on the North Coast,' Moustafa said. 'We have successfully sold approximately 12,000 housing units in a short period due to high local and international demand. Twenty percent of these sales were made from outside Egypt, the highest percentage achieved by a real estate company in Egypt.' This success, according to Moustafa, is attributed to an electronic system that facilitates sales, contracting, and payment from anywhere in the world, further promoting the export of Egyptian real estate. The success of the Madinaty project, in particular, has made it a destination for investors and Arab delegations seeking to learn about Egypt's pioneering approach to developing smart and sustainable cities. 'The great success of the Madinaty project has made it a destination for investors and Arab delegations seeking to learn about Egypt's pioneering experience in developing smart and sustainable cities,' said Moustafa. 'Today, a delegation from Iraq is visiting the city, and tomorrow, Madinaty will host a high-level delegation from Saudi Arabia.
