Sharkawy & Sarhan is acted as Egyptian legal counsel to the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and Council of the European Union in Egypt on a significant €10.6 million financing deal to support GoBus Transportation in launching Egypt’s first inter-city electric bus fleet

Sharkawy & Sarhan is honored to have advised the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and Council of the European Union in Egypt on a significant €10.6 million financing deal to support GoBus Transportation in launching Egypt’s first inter-city electric bus fleet.

This transaction, supported by the SEMED Multi-Donor Account, represents a major step forward in promoting sustainable mobility across Egypt’s governorates. The introduction of the new electric buses will offer passengers cleaner, quieter, and safer travel options, leading to reduced emissions and establishing a model for eco-friendly infrastructure in the region.

We are delighted to be part of a project that not only encourages low-carbon transportation but also reinforces Egypt’s dedication to inclusive and climate-resilient development.

We had the pleasure of working alongside CMS, with Partner Elitsa Ivanova and Counsel Katerina Hristova, who acted as English legal advisers to EBRD.

The Sharkawy & Sarhan team handling this transaction was led by Partner Ahmed Haggag, with support from Senior Associate Taher Sabala and Attorney at Law Malak Salem.
