RAS ELHEKMA COLLEGE TOWN

Ras ElHekma, Cairo, Egypt

A space to support innovation and creativity, through 3 zones: universities, incubators, and a StartUp village.

INCUBATORS ZONE

Over Viewing the sea we have the incubators› zone wich has all the power and fund the start-up tower with all the knowledge, skills, tools, and money it needs

It embodies a disruptive innovation that can drive a 10 X improvement in a performance metric of great importance to the target market.

It will represent a net new line of business for the enterprise, as opposed to an adjacency to an existing line of business.

A residance hotel for the CEOs, and workers.

The design idea is a mixture of functional design and design in context. The existing topography divided the site into zones and each one of them has a specific function.

All the land uses existing in the site must be connected through a pedestrian network which emphasizes walkability. Not only a connection between the various zones in the innovation hub area but a linkage between the housing, the academic land use and the Innovation Hub.

The educational zone would be located in the hybrid zone which is the zone intersecting between the academic and Innovation Hub. The commercial zone is at the seafront. In addition, the innovation and research zone should exist next to the academic area because logically there is a strong relation between research and education which will emphasize the role of the research’s institutions. The location of the startups would be in the heart of the hybrid zone to put them under spotlight and encourage them in their own business. The entrepreneur and convention visitor center must exist on the highway for better accessibility and to give the place a strong identity.
