They're doing this by offering training programs for students and graduates all across Egypt's governorates, helping to create a skilled generation that can lead our digital economy.
ITIDA's Technology Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center (TIEC) just announced that registration is now open for the Summer 2026 session of the InnovEgypt program. This program is all about boosting the creative and entrepreneurial skills of students and graduates.
This fully funded program aims to help students and graduates from all sorts of backgrounds pick up key skills like design thinking, innovation, and entrepreneurship. It also focuses on developing creative thinking, problem-solving, and how to design awesome business models. All of this is to make sure they're super ready for the job market and can confidently lead their own projects.
The program is set to kick off in September 2026 and will be held in several governorates, including Cairo, Giza, Port Said, Zagazig, Damanhour, Mansoura, Tanta, Qena, Minya, Fayoum, Aswan, Banha, Alexandria, Ismailia, and even Sinai University.
InnovEgypt includes interactive workshops, running for 5 hours a day over five days. Participants will need to attend the first two days in person at one of Egypt's Digital Innovation Centers, with the remaining training days completed online.
Once they complete the program, participants will receive a certified diploma from the Technology Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center. Plus, outstanding ideas and projects get a fantastic chance to join the center's Business Incentives Program, which provides all the support needed to develop them and turn them into growing startups!
