The program covers various sectors, including Fintech, Martech, Real Estate, Logistics/Supply Chain, and more.

Key Takeaways

Egypt is witnessing significant growth in its startup ecosystem, making it a prominent hub for innovation and entrepreneurship in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. This growth is driven by various factors, including government support, a burgeoning entrepreneurial culture, and a tech-savvy population. One noteworthy aspect of Egypt's startup ecosystem is its robust support system, consisting of accelerators and incubator programs. These programs have played a crucial role in nurturing and accelerating the growth of tech startups in the country. According to Disrupt Africa's 2021 report, 40% of Egyptian startups have participated in accelerator or incubation programs, highlighting the ecosystem's commitment to fostering entrepreneurship and innovation.
