Can Building-Integrated Nature-based Solutions (BI-NbS) reach their full potential in the Global South? In Egyptian context, BI-NbS are relatively new with an identified gap between high theory and low implementation rates practice. To bridge this gap, study conducts in-depth investigation of market conditions to reveal current trends residential buildings Egypt. It also identifies gaps overlaps perceptions suppliers consumers BI-NbS. Results that sector sales mainly target high-income groups yet very limited dominated by rooftop systems. Suppliers advocate for high-tech systems over low-tech systems, whereas prefer latter. The mostly align regarding basic aspects such as production operation preferences well anxieties concerns about regional context. However, they diverge key affecting penetration conditions, aims, barriers. Accordingly, consumers, outlined recommendations, directed policymakers, improved development local emerging markets South,
