The **Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM)**, located in Giza near the Pyramids, is the world’s largest museum dedicated to a single civilization, showcasing Egypt’s ancient history spanning over 7,000 years. It was conceived in the early 1990s and officially launched in 1992 by then-President Hosni Mubarak to replace the aging Egyptian Museum in Cairo and consolidate Egypt’s vast archaeological treasures into a state-of-the-art facility[1][2]. The museum’s design was selected through a global competition won by Ireland’s Heneghan Peng Architects in 2003. Construction started in 2005 but faced significant delays due to environmental, financial, and political challenges, including the Arab Spring and subsequent instability which stalled progress for years[2]. Despite these setbacks, the GEM represents a $1 billion investment, featuring a massive 490,000 square meter complex that includes modern conservation labs, exhibition halls, and public spaces[3][4]. GEM houses over 100,000 artifacts arranged in 12 chronological halls covering all major eras of ancient Egyptian history—from prehistoric times through the Pharaonic dynasties to the Greco-Roman period[1]. One of its headline attractions is the complete collection of King Tutankhamun’s treasures, which will be relocated from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square during the museum’s full opening scheduled for July 2025[3]. Since a partial opening in October 2024, the museum has welcomed around 1.5 million visitors, averaging 4,000 daily, showing strong public interest[1]. The museum not only serves as a cultural and historical landmark but also as a technological marvel, employing advanced preservation techniques and interactive displays to enhance visitor engagement and artifact conservation[4]. For business and technology audiences, GEM represents a fusion of heritage preservation with cutting-edge museum design and large-scale project management, highlighting Egypt’s commitment to safeguarding and showcasing its ancient civilization on a global stag
