The history of Siemens in Egypt dates back to 1859, when the Siemens brothers laid a sea cable through the Red Sea, thus ensuring that messages could be transmitted from Suez to Aden. In 1901, Siemens opened its first technical office in Cairo. From the very beginning, Siemens has been contributing significantly to the most pivotal projects for the Egyptian economy in all sectors.
