2025 Zhejiang (Egypt) International Engineering Exhibition Successfully Held

“Shaping a Smart, Green Future with Zhejiang”

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia & CAIRO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--From June 17th to 19th, 2025, the Zhejiang (Egypt) International Engineering Exhibition was successfully held in Hall 3 of the Cairo International Exhibition Center.

Hosted by the Department of Commerce of Zhejiang Province and organized by the Zhejiang International Contractors Association and Hangzhou Boheng Business Exhibition Co., Ltd., the exhibition was held alongside the prominent 2025 Egypt Big 5 Construction Show. Zhejiang showcased its unified provincial image through a dedicated area featuring 10 enterprises, 15 representatives, and an exhibition space of 108 square meters. Participating companies included Yoking Pump Co., Ltd., Zhitao Electric Group Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Qiankai Electric Equipment Co., Ltd., and Hangzhou Fulltime Robotics Co., Ltd. Over three days, Zhejiang enterprises interacted with more than 920 professional merchants from 12 countries and regions, resulting in intended transaction amounts of $5.7 million.

Strategically located at the crossroads of Asia, Africa, and Europe, Egypt plays a key role in the Belt and Road Initiative. In May 2024, China and Egypt signed the Cooperation Plan on Jointly Promoting the Construction of the Belt and Road Initiative, which defined key cooperation areas. This strengthened framework will deepen collaboration and fuel development. To diversify its economy, Egypt has initiated projects like “Egypt Vision 2030,” the New Administrative Capital, and the Suez Canal Corridor—sectors with strong demand for construction and renewable energy. These developments open new avenues for Zhejiang enterprises to participate in Egypt's infrastructure upgrades.

Zhejiang Province has been advancing its “Sweet Potato Economy” strategy to upgrade the “No. 1 Opening-Up Project.” In 2024, newly signed foreign contracting projects totaled $5.486 billion (up 11.57%), with a completed turnover of $7.995 billion (up 15.27%), ranking fourth nationwide in business scale. This Egyptian exhibition marked Zhejiang’s first self-organized overseas event in 2025. Themed “Shaping a Smart, Green Future with Zhejiang,” it underscored the province’s capabilities in green technology and smart construction. Zhejiang will continue to leverage overseas exhibitions to help more enterprises expand globally, foster cooperation and technology exchange, and offer sustainable solutions to global engineering challenges.
