EGYPT DATA CENTER MARKET - KEY HIGHLIGHTS
  • In Egypt, data center operations are regulated by the National Telecommunications Regulatory Authority under the Telecommunications Law No. 10 of 2003, and the companies, which aim to offer data center services like colocation, cloud, or server hosting, must secure an official approval from the authority before starting their operations.
  • Egypt is expanding its digital economy through the ICT 2030 Strategy, which encourages investments to improve digital infrastructure, build technology parks, and increase the contribution of the ICT sector to the country’s overall economic growth.
  • Egypt consists of approximately 13 operational colocation data centers, of which nine facilities are in Cairo alone. Most of the data center facilities in Egypt are being designed to meet Tier III specifications of the Uptime Institute in every infrastructure. The nation is witnessing the development of around nine colocation data centers, which are either in planned or under construction stages.
  • The enforcement of Egypt Personal Data Protection Law No. 151 of 2020 is leading to increase data center investments in Egypt by building more trust among customers to store their data in data centers and cloud platforms, as this law clearly sets rules on how personal data should be collected, stored, and used, and also requires data center and cloud service providers to follow stringent security measures to keep data safe and within the country.
  • The data center firms are sourcing funds from various financial institutions to expand data center service offerings across Egypt. For example, in September 2025, Khazna Data Centers secured a fund of around $2.62 billion from a consortium of firms to expand data center service offerings across North Africa and Middle Eastern nations.
  • Egypt is witnessing gradual surge in digitalization accounting for approximately 121 million active cellular mobile connections as of early 2026 with an internet penetration standing at around 82.7% during the same period. The rising digitalization across the country is slated to increase the need for data centers in the forecast period.
  • Several businesses across diverse industries in Egypt are transitioning towards cloud platforms to host their IT infrastructure and workloads in cloud platforms for better efficiency. For example, in December 2024, Al Dahra, the Egyptian agriculture services provider migrated the company’s IT infrastructure to Amazon Web Services (AWS), to enhance operational efficiency and reduce operational costs by 60%. The rise in enterprise cloud migration across multiple sectors is expected to increase significantly during the forecast period.
