01

A room that was already historic

The Saint-George has hosted the city's diplomatic and business life for more than a century. ARIIS uses it for the same reason it uses Djamaâ El-Djazaïr: the setting does part of the work.

The definitive recognition in African real estate

Nominees campaign, and their networks come with them. In 2025, 4,600 votes were cast across fourteen nominated projects from two countries. The ceremony honors those who define industry standards.
