Dr. Khaled Mahmoud Abdelhalim Abdelal, the Governor of Qena, and his Deputy, Dr. Hazem Omar Ahmed, held a productive meeting with the Enroot Development team. The discussion centered on future cooperation plans with a focus on economic development and entrepreneurship.

Enroot Development, in collaboration with the Saaed and Kayan Foundations and with funding from the Drosos Foundation, has successfully concluded a series of policy workshops aimed at offering proposals for amending Egypt’s Intellectual Property (IP) Law and strengthening the entrepreneurial ecosystem. These workshops, part of the MASAAR project, brought together government officials, industry experts, and key stakeholders to provide actionable recommendations to improve Egypt’s export potential and foster the growth of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).

This research validation workshop brought together experts from national institutions, private sector entities, and international organizations, including representatives from GIZ Egypt, UNDP Egypt, UNIDO, EBRD Cairo Resident Office, the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), and Egypt's Ministry of Agriculture, including the Climate Change unit of the Agricultural Research Center. Together, they reviewed and scored potential agricultural value chains, identifying those with the highest potential for scalable and impactful climate-smart agricultural practices.

On June 5, 2024 Enroot Development held a vital panel discussion  with the aim of enhancing exports from Aswan and the southern governorates of Upper Egypt. The panel discussion titled "Policy Solutions: Fostering the Export Potential of Aswan’s Productive Clusters" aims to support state efforts in boosting exports and achieving sustainable development in Upper Egypt, in line with Egypt's Vision 2030. The event focused on proposing policy recommendations to enhance the competitiveness of production clusters in Aswan, enabling them to access more profitable international markets.

Enroot Development recently concluded a successful five-day Design Thinking Retreat and Investor Study Tour, marking a pivotal step toward fostering a thriving impact investment ecosystem in Upper Egypt. The retreat brought together a diverse group of Upper Egyptian businesses, Cairo-based investors, and ecosystem enablers to exchange insights and formulate actionable strategies for growth.
