The Creative Mediterranean team were in Egypt on 8 and 9 February 2023 for the kickoff of the selected business proposals with NilePreneurs Initiative.
The business proposals were selected under the CREACT4MED project following the pitch session, which took place on the 12th January 2023 in a hybrid format. Entrepreneurs were required to present their businesses to a group of experts, and 4 were selected.
As with previous visits, over the course of two days, beneficiaries learned about the CREACT4MED activities, and brainstormed synergy opportunities where entrepreneurs were challenged with a view to strengthening their business proposals. Following the event, these projects are ready to be launched with the help of the Egyptian Business Support Organisation, NilePreneurs Initiative, funded by the Central Bank of Egypt and implemented by Nile University .
The entrepreneurs are: Almah – a project by the Egyptian Clothing Bank, Duma Toys, Reform Studio, and Teatro Al Saeed.
