Leading Egyptian journalism establishment Al-Ahram and Dubai consultancy firm Spectrum are organising the first premium Egyptian real estate show outside the country in an attempt to provide a large variety of luxury properties for Arab and foreign investors as well as Egyptians abroad.

The exhibition, titled Egypt Property Show (EPS), which will begin in Dubai between 5 and 7 May, will represent a number of large Egyptian and Emirati real estate companies.

EPS is planned to be organised in Kuwait, the UK and the US, according to the exhibition’s official website

“It [EPS] is an international presentation for the Egyptian real estate market that attempts to bring Egypt closer to those who are not in direct reach,” the website states.

Al-Ahram chairman Hisham Lotfi said that Dubai was named as the exhibition’s first stop because it has many Egyptian expatriates and other Arabs who seek to invest in the Egyptian market, Al-Ahram Arabic news website reported on Thursday.
