Biography

Lucio Frigo is a real estate investor, developer and advisor operating across the MENA and Africa regions through Materia, a real estate development and investment company he established in 2014 with the vision of growing it into the real estate developer of reference for economically efficient and architecturally and socially relevant real estate projects across the region. Investment costs are lowered through the use of best-in-class construction solutions that leverage materials available locally and the long-term sustainability of projects is ensured through financing models that encourage ownership at affordable prices and investment into key social infrastructure that becomes the heart of residential communities.

Lucio’s approach stems out of over a decade of property investment experience matured in Africa, the West and the Middle East at global firms such as Abraaj Capital, Colony Capital and Goldman Sachs.
