The General Authority for Investment and Free Zones (GAFI) has just launched its brand-new e-portal! This exciting new platform is designed to completely rethink how investors access investment services and information, bringing everything together in one unified digital space. It's a big step towards solving the challenge of having too many different channels to get services, making the whole experience much smoother for company formation, dealing with services, incentives, and investment opportunities. The portal's launch was a big event, attended by Dr. Mohamed Farid Saleh, Minister of Investment and Foreign Trade; Hassan Raddad, Minister of Labor; Dr. Eng. Hossam Abdel Fattah, Governor of Qalyubia; and Dr. Mohamed Awad, CEO of GAFI. They were all part of a tour of the investment zone, which also included opening an Investor Services Center and visiting a food products exhibition and several factories.
