Building on growth across North America and Europe, WiredScore launched in UAE in October 2022 as part of its global expansion plan. It has since expanded its regional footprint with its launch in the KSA, Qatar, and Egypt. The business has gathered strong momentum over the past three years, with over 300 buildings now certified or undergoing certification by WiredScore in the MENA region.
