Egyptian entrepreneur Ibrahim Anwar, who is the CEO of Sabeeka company, recently met with a group of young people and entrepreneurs in Fayoum governorate. During their discussion, he really stressed how important it is for new startups to focus on solving real-world problems. Anwar shared in a post that simply choosing a business sector isn't the main thing that makes a startup successful. He explained that many entrepreneurs get too caught up asking about the best industries to jump into, whether it's real estate, artificial intelligence, or e-commerce. But he believes the true starting point is actually understanding a customer's problem and then working hard to find a solution for it.
