Amidst rapid economic changes both regionally and locally, initiatives focused on women's empowerment and entrepreneurship are becoming increasingly vital. They're seen as key drivers for reshaping Egypt's job market, especially with the growth of the digital economy and evolving employment demands. In this exciting context, the eleventh edition of the "SHE CAN 2026" event, organized by Entreprenelle, has kicked off. This event truly reflects a growing commitment to building a comprehensive system that supports women's economic and professional participation. The event took place at the Creativa Innovation Hub in Giza, under the inspiring slogan “IF SHE CAN’T, WHO CAN?”. It's part of the "Equal Opportunities and Social Development" project, implemented by GIZ in collaboration with the Egyptian government and co-funded by the European Union. This blend of institutional involvement showcases an advanced model of partnership between international bodies, government, and the private sector, all working together to create a more supportive environment for women's entrepreneurship.
