Startup Guide Egypt to Launch Latest Edition with Virtual Event
The event aims to provide network opportunities for young entrepreneurs committed to helping the country achieve its 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.
Startup Guide and Drosos Foundation have teamed up for the virtual launch of the latest edition of the popular entrepreneurial handbooks series ‘Startup Guide Egypt’, to be released on Wednesday 26th May.
Being one of the most vibrant startup hubs in the region, the ever growing Egyptian entrepreneurial scene is constantly brimming with emerging accelerators, incubators, and coworking spaces. This is emphasised in the guide as part of its efforts in spotlighting the organisations and individuals having a positive social, economic, and environmental impact across the country. It also presents integral information for entrepreneurs to hone down their craft.
In this light, the virtual launch poses itself as a great opportunity for impact-focused ventures--driven by both investors and entrepreneurs--to immerse themselves in Egypt’s lucrative market.
Suba Umathevan, CEO of Drosos Foundation, stated in a press release: “We believe in young people’s creative power as change makers and trust in their ideas. We need their collective action to innovate for change to achieve the capital Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. Drosos Foundation recognises the vital role that entrepreneurial education and mentorship play in fostering a thriving startup ecosystem and the responsibility to empower women entrepreneurs.”
The handbook is the collaborative product of Drosos Foundation and the community support of Bassita, Enroot, enpact, Startup Haus Cairo, IbtikarKhana, KMT/District Spaces, and AUC Venture Lab.
The launch event takes place on Wednesday May 26th, 2021, at 18:00 EET, and you can sign up at https://whova.com/portal/registration/sgevl_202105/.
