Female Founders Workshops

A series of nationwide workshops that will be led by seasoned guest-speakers and entrepreneurs and designed to help female founders take your first steps towards actualizing their business idea or startup. 

Impact Research

The program will conduct research studying further understanding the current innovation cycle in Egypt and issues around commercialising ideas, as well as the gaps entrepreneurs face in the country, from the initial idea to the venture conception and progressive growth as a business. Based on that research, ‘state of entrepreneurship’ reports are to be generated and published compiling and detailing all relevant information that will allow for better market understanding, know-how and best practices within the entrepreneurial sphere.
