Over the years, the renowned developers have taken care to document their journey from a mere idea to an illustrious portfolio spanning the globe, and are finally unveiling the captivating narrative behind their success in a five-episode documentary.

“ORA started with USD 16 million of investment,” Mohamed Sheta, Chief Financial Officer at ORA, says. “We now have total assets under management in our consolidated balance sheet of USD 2.5 billion in seven years.”
