The program offers a complete environment that includes technical and financial support, with funding up to 250,000 Egyptian Pounds for pilot projects. It also provides a structured path for building long-term partnerships. The program is being carried out in collaboration with Germany's Adelphi and GIZ Egypt, on behalf of BMZ, and in partnership with the Ministry of Industry. This initiative reflects a commitment to boosting cooperation between startups and the industrial sector. This collaboration aims to speed up technology transfer and enhance competitiveness. The application deadline is April 15, 2026, and an introductory session will be held for interested participants.
