2025 Sets a Positive Trend for Cyprus Real Estate

by News Editor

The real estate market in Cyprus has surged forward in 2025, marking a significant 15% increase in property sales compared to the previous year. This remarkable growth in the first quarter is highlighted by the 4,137 sale documents filed, as per reports from the Registration Council of Real Estate Agents.

While there was a slight decrease of 2.9% in transaction volume, the sales value saw a robust increase of 15%, surpassing €1.1 billion annually. This promising start to the year reflects sustained demand and better alignment of supply to market needs.

Women Accounted For More Than Half Of Scientists In 10 EU Regions

by THEFUTURE.TEAM

In Portugal’s Continente region, 265,100 women worked as scientists and engineers in 2025, representing 46% of the total workforce in these occupations.

Across the EU, women made up more than half of all scientists and engineers in 10 regions. Four were located in Spain, two in Portugal and one in Greece. The remaining regions were Poland’s Makroregion centralny, Sweden’s northernmost region and France’s outermost regions.

Most of these areas had relatively small numbers of scientists and engineers overall. Spain’s Noreste region was the largest, with 102,700 women in these occupations, accounting for 51% of its total workforce.

Women’s Representation Varies Across Europe

The figures highlight considerable regional differences in both the number of women working in science and engineering and their share of the overall workforce.

Cyprus remains below the EU average, with women accounting for 37.8% of scientists and engineers. However, this share is broadly comparable to that of Île-de-France, one of Europe’s largest centres of scientific and engineering employment.
