PARAGON Developments, Egypt’s leading regenerative mixed-use developer, announces a strategic partnership with Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, to integrate advanced smart building solutions across the WORK IN project within PARAGON.3, Invest-Gate reports.
This collaboration reinforces PARAGON’s commitment to creating regenerative spaces that seamlessly combine human-centric design, enhanced well-being, and optimized environmental performance.
Schneider Electric will provide a suite of cutting-edge EcoStruxure solutions for building management, including intelligent meeting room management systems, motion-activated lighting sensors, and advanced climate control solutions. These integrated systems go beyond operational efficiency—they reflect PARAGON’s ongoing evolution toward regenerative development, where every square meter is optimized for energy use, spatial functionality, and environmental impact reduction.
Located in the heart of the New Capital, directly facing the Presidential Palace, WORK IN offers fully serviced workspaces ranging from 15 to 50 square meters, tailored for dynamic startups and SMEs. With Schneider Electric’s technology embedded, these spaces function as intelligent ecosystems that adapt in real time to occupants’ needs while maintaining peak energy efficiency.
The solutions enhance space utilization through predictive analytics, automate lighting to ensure comfort and energy savings, and deliver precise climate control with minimal environmental footprint. Collectively, they reduce operational costs and foster responsive, human-centric work environments.
Eng. Bedeir Rizk, CEO of PARAGON, commented, “Our partnership with Schneider Electric is a practical embodiment of our philosophy in regenerative development. We design living systems that evolve with their users and actively contribute to enhancing environmental sustainability and social well-being. By integrating our expertise in real estate development and design with Schneider Electric’s technological leadership, we have been able to develop highly efficient, flexible spaces tailored for the demands of the future.”
Eng. Mohamed Bedeir, Chairman of PARAGON, commented, “This collaboration with Schneider Electric marks another milestone in a successful partnership that has already been realized through our PARAGON.1 and PARAGON.2 projects. It reflects our shared commitment to creating spaces that are not only intelligent and sustainable, but also aligned with the future of urban living. At PARAGON, we draw on over 35 years of integrated, 360° experience in real estate and design.”
Sebastien Riez, Cluster President of Schneider Electric Northeast Africa and the Levant, stated: “At Schneider Electric, we focus on reducing carbon emissions from buildings to make them more future-ready and sustainable, with the ultimate goal of achieving net-zero emissions. Our partnership with PARAGON Developments plays a key role in shaping the future of smart buildings in the region. By integrating our advanced energy management and automation solutions into the WORK IN project, we support evolving business needs while upholding the highest environmental standards. PARAGON’s regenerative vision aligns perfectly with our mission to create smart, efficient, resilient, and sustainable built environments across Egypt.”
