Lumena by Omniyat is the newest architectural wonder set to redefine workspaces in Dubai
Meet Lumena by OMNIYAT—the city's newest ultra-luxury commercial development and co-working space. Fresh off the success of Enara's headline-making debut, OMNIYAT has recently unveiled its most ambitious commercial statement yet: a 48-storey sculptural tower designed to be more than a workplace. With a targeted completion in 2029, Lumena is imagined as an icon of spatial innovation and biophilic design set to add to the Dubai skyline views and pave the way for future-forward ways of working. 'Lumena is the future of commercial real estate in Dubai. With its location, design, and integrated amenities, we are creating a new paradigm for commercial real estate that aligns with how the next generation of leaders wants to work and live. Leveraging technology, innovation, and future-proof design, LUMENA's sculpted form reflects both architectural brilliance and the effortless flow of ideas, ambition, and enterprise. This exceptional project reflects OMNIYAT's ongoing commitment to shaping the commercial landmarks of tomorrow,' says Mahdi Amjad, Founder and Executive Chairman at OMNIYAT. Architecturally, Lumena is striking with its slender profile featuring cantilevered forms and a multi-faceted facade. Inside, 91 meticulously designed shell-and-core office units, from full floors to boutique-scale spaces, offer flexible formats flooded with light and panoramic views. Natural materials, double-height glazing, and subtle textural cues bring an understated calm to the corporate domain. But what truly sets Lumena apart is its curation of amenities that rival luxury hotels. From the private-access Executive Club and Sky Pool to the wellness suite and Sky Theatre – a first for a commercial tower in Dubai – the environment is human-centric and the experience is anything but conventional. Concierge services extend to lifestyle bookings, wellness support, and even private shopping. Technologically, the tower is targeted to achieve Platinum status certifications across LEED, WELL Building™, WiredScore, and SmartScore, to make Lumena a global benchmark for sustainability and smart design. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images: Supplied

Orange Egypt partners with Huawei to launch 5G network nationwide
Arab Finance: Orange Egypt has signed an agreement with Huawei to deploy 5G technology across the country, supporting Egypt's digital infrastructure and enabling technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, augmented reality, and virtual reality, as per an emailed press release. The partnership builds on the two companies' ongoing collaboration and reflects a joint effort to expand connectivity for consumers and businesses, with applications across areas such as smart cities and the Internet of Things (IoT). As part of the deployment, Huawei is supplying its Multiple Input Multiple Output (Massive MIMO) technology for Radio Access Networks (RAN), aimed at improving spectral efficiency, network performance, and service quality in high-traffic areas. The solution uses beamforming and spatial multiplexing to help increase network capacity, supporting services that require higher bandwidth, including high-resolution video, AR, and VR. The agreement also covers Huawei's '0 Bit 0 Watt' energy management platform, which applies AI-based algorithms to manage power usage across the network. The platform is designed to lower energy consumption and operational costs while aligning with environmental targets related to emissions and resource efficiency. Additionally, Orange Egypt will implement Huawei's E-band microwave technology to support wireless backhaul. The system is intended to deliver high-throughput and low-latency connections in locations where deploying fiber infrastructure may not be practical. Both companies said the rollout is part of broader efforts to strengthen Egypt's telecommunications capabilities and support evolving digital needs across different sectors. © 2020-2023 Arab Finance For Information Technology.

Chinese mobile operators cut operational emissions
The Chinese mobile operation industry recently reduced their operational emissions for the first time in 2024. However the volume of mobile data traffic has nearly quadrupled since 2019. As a whole the industry has begun taking actions to improve its energy efficiency and increased the use of renewables. Before the decline last year, previous analyses found regular annual increases in emissions in China, which rose 7 per cent between 2019 and 2023. Energy consumption grew 30 per cent since 2019 as data consumption soared with the nationwide rollout of 5G services, with the nation ending 2024 with just over 1 billion 5G connections. Steven Moore, head of climate action at the GSMA, stated the opportunity in China is enormous, as operators can propel the industry forward in its efforts towards net zero. 'A lot more needs to be done, and it is encouraging to see the mobile industry in Greater China making progress in this way', he noted. 'However, this first decrease is only realised if it goes further next year. We must double down and ensure we are doing everything we can as a global industry to halve emissions by 2030'. The Mobile Net Zero: Greater China report, released at the event, noted the drop in emissions comes as a growing number of mobile operators in the region are setting voluntary climate targets. Four operators in Asia Pacific have validated near-term science-based targets, while three have validated net zero targets. Several key suppliers also have committed to science-based targets and 2050 net zero targets. The annual Mobile Net Zero report found the mobile industry trimmed operational emissions by 8 per cent between 2019 and 2023 despite surging demand. Source: Reuters Image Credit: Stock Image
