Onsi Sawiris is the patriarch of Egypt's wealthiest family, and founder of Orascom Construction Industries. His son Nassef took over in 1995, and built it into a company with more than $5 billion in revenues. In 2013 the Sawiris family moved Orascom Construction Industry's primary listing from Egypt to NYSE Euronext in Amsterdam. Onsi remains a significant shareholder in OCI, with almost a quarter of the company. His sons Nassef, Naguib and Samih are all billionaires.
