Arab Finance: Egyptian tech firm X-GEN has signed three strategic memoranda of understanding (MoUs) with international technology companies to expand the adoption of robotics, autonomous drones, and intelligent systems across Egypt, according to a press release.
X-GEN penned a deal with Hollyway Singapore to introduce the Chinese company's Iron Dock technology, which enables autonomous drone operations for infrastructure inspections, remote monitoring, and asset management. The solutions are expected to bolster operational efficiency, improve infrastructure monitoring, and facilitate the early identification of potential risks.
Under its deal with Pudu Robotics China, X-GEN became the group’s first partner in Africa, paving the way for the launch of autonomous cleaning robots, industrial logistics and material-handling systems, as well as quadruped and humanoid robotic technologies in Egypt.
The third agreement, penned with Saudi-based HPAC, sets a framework for cooperation on DRONE VOLT's professional drone technologies and integrated industrial solutions. The partnership will initially target opportunities in Egypt while exploring reciprocal cooperation in Saudi Arabia, including joint product development and industry-specific applications.
DRONE VOLT's portfolio includes professional drones designed for industrial inspections, surveillance, thermography, surface treatment, and search-and-rescue operations, serving sectors such as energy, construction, civil engineering, and security.
Amir Wahid, Co-Founder and CEO of X-GEN, commented: “Our partnerships with leading international companies are not simply about bringing robots and drones into the market. They are about combining global innovation with Egyptian expertise to develop solutions that address real challenges, improve productivity, and create lasting value.
“We want X-GEN to be a strategic technology partner to industries, not just an equipment distributor. Whether in infrastructure, agriculture, industrial operations or public services, our focus is on understanding the challenge first and delivering the right solution,” Wahid added.
