Mrs Yvonne Baumann, Swiss Ambassador to Egypt, Ahmed Hammad, Chairman and Country Holding Officer, ABB Egypt, key SwissCham members and stakeholders, providing a platform to address and discuss the unprecedented challenges faced by industries in Egypt while exploring opportunities for sustainable development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The roundtable commenced with welcome remarks by Mr Kamal Abdel Malek, Chairman of SwissCham, followed by a warm welcome address from H.E. Mrs. Yvonne Baumann. The floor was then given to ABB’s keynote speakers Eng. Sherif Ismail, Electrification Commercial Leader Egypt & Central Africa, Vice President, ABB Egypt, and Eng. Ahmed Hassan, Local Business Area Manager, North and Central Africa, ABB Egypt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>H.E. Mrs. Yvonne Baumann highlighted the importance of collaboration between Switzerland and Egypt in the pursuit of sustainable energy solutions, saying that highly innovative Swiss companies, with cutting-edge technology and solutions, like ABB, contribute to a more climate-friendly green economy, as does the Swiss economic cooperation with Egypt. Highlighting ABB’s commitment to supporting Egypt’s sustainable development goals, Eng. Ismail said, “We are thrilled to collaborate with SwissCham to drive awareness of energy efficiency and discuss ways to revolutionize the industrial sector, optimize their operations, promote sustainability and contribute to a greener future.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ABB’s role in providing energy-efficient solutions has been instrumental in driving sustainable development in Egypt. By introducing more efficient energy systems, such as Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) and LV & MV switchgear, ABB has enabled Egypt to reduce energy consumption and decrease reliance on imported energy sources.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday, July 18th, at the Office of Swiss International Cooperation, Swiss Embassy, in participation with the Swiss Chamber of
