The Administrative Capital for Urban Development (ACUD), owner and developer of the New Administrative Capital (NAC), a city under construction 45 km east of Cairo, Egypt’s capital, is also banking on the digitization of water management to ensure the comfort of its future inhabitants. To this end, it recently entered into a partnership with Dorsch Gruppe, a German consulting firm, and the Egyptian Consulting Group (ECG).

And we will be able to rely on Dorsch, which is a model of excellence in the implementation and management of hydraulic installations in the Federal Republic of Germany,” says ACUD.
