Sometimes this guidance comes from regional entrepreneurs who have had success in other parts of the world (like the Saudi entrepreneur Abdulrahman Hariri , covered previously by Wamda, who transferred experience he learned in the UK); other times, budding entrepreneurs benefit from meet-up events that facilitate trans-sector, cross-regional conversations.
MC Egypt , a for-profit subsidiary of Mercy Corps that supports social entrepreneurial work and small-scale agricultural projects, organized such a workshop last month in Cairo, bringing together Egyptian social entrepreneurs and business experts from Cranfield University in the United Kingdom. The workshop served to transfer experience and empower Egyptian entrepreneurs through direct guidance, support, and practical mentorship.
Muhammad Mansour, director of the MC Egypt’s entrepreneurship bureau, described the event as “focused on finding solutions and clear structures for the participating companies to enhance their competitive position and accelerate growth, as well as helping the members of one team to set clear business plans and conduct detailed market study.”
