AU-Startups Founder of the Month: Yusuf Fahmy

Yusuf Fahmy is the founder and CEO of Conix, an Egyptian proptech startup that uses AI to generate designs and adaptive materials for real estate developers and architects.

Yusuf is a practicing architect who developed the AI technology that powers Conix and used it for his own work on international projects before deciding to build it into a full-fledged product. He is also the Managing Director of Yusuf Fahmy Architects, a Cairo-based architecture firm specializing in architecture and urban design.

Conix allows users to evaluate the viability of building sites and assess multiple scenarios in minutes, generate design options for a given site, and optimize spaces while minimizing environmental impact.

The startup recently raised $1.3 million in pre-seed funding, which will be used for product development and expansion into Saudi Arabia.
