AUC, CAPGEMINI LAUNCH DIGITELLES MISR
Nada Mustafa The Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation (CEI) of The Onsi Sawiris School of Business at The American University in Cairo (AUC), a leading hub for entrepreneurship and economic growth in the Middle East and Africa and Capgemini —a global leader in consulting, technology services, and digital transformation—announced today a one-year partnership to empower 100 women from Greater Cairo and neighboring governorates through training in digital freelancing skills, with a focus on AI and digital marketing. The initiative aims to build a strong talent pipeline, fueling the next generation of female digital innovators while advancing diversity and inclusion within Egypt's tech ecosystem. 'Empowering women through digital freelancing is a step toward building a more inclusive workforce,' said Sherif Kamel, dean of AUC Onsi Sawiris School of Business. 'This partnership with Capgemini enables us to provide women with the skills and tools they need to thrive in today's rapidly evolving digital economy, breaking down barriers and fostering opportunities for leadership and growth.' For a year, participants will gain the skills and tools needed to compete in the digital marketplace. By equipping women with remote work capabilities, the program addresses key societal and logistical barriers, such as transportation challenges faced by those living far from major tech hubs. Remote work also allows women to balance their personal and professional responsibilities while unlocking greater financial independence, flexibility, and long-term career growth. 'Capgemini is committed to creating a sustainable and inclusive future for all,' said Hossam Seifeldin, CEO of Capgemini Egypt. 'This program goes beyond traditional training by building a dynamic, connected community of women ready to pursue a digital freelancing career. By enabling women to work remotely, we empower them economically and give them greater control over their time, location and working hours, to help overcome societal and cultural constraints.' The program also responds to the growing interest among young women in pursuing freelance careers, whether part-time or full-time. Egypt's accelerating digital transformation, improved internet connectivity, and dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystem have opened up significant opportunities for freelance work. This initiative seeks to help close the gender gap in tech while contributing to broader economic growth and innovation. Founded in 1919, The American University in Cairo (AUC) is a leading English-language, American-accredited institution of higher education and center of the intellectual, social, and cultural life of the Arab world. It is a vital bridge between East and West, linking Egypt and the region to the world through scholarly research, partnerships with academic and research institutions and study abroad programs.

Egypt Prepares First AI-Powered National Platform for Remote Diagnosis
Backed by WHO guidelines, the new platform aims to boost diagnostic speed and accuracy across Egypt's healthcare system. May 13, 2025 Egypt is preparing the pilot launch of its first national artificial intelligence-based platform for remote medical diagnosis, according to Dr. Ahmed El-Sobky, Chairman of the General Authority for Healthcare and Supervisor of the Comprehensive Health Insurance Project. The new platform will rely on the latest treatment protocols issued by the World Health Organization (WHO), with the goal of improving diagnostic accuracy and reducing response times across public health services. The announcement came during a meeting between Dr. El-Sobky and Dr. Nima Saeed Abid, WHO Representative in Egypt, as the two parties discussed strategies to advance the country's healthcare system. Dr. El-Sobky noted that the Authority is already a regional leader in adopting global medical standards, having implemented both the ICD-11 disease classification and ICHI intervention coding systems—becoming the first healthcare body in the MENA region to do so. These systems are expected to significantly improve public health tracking, inform national health policies, and support clinical decision-making at scale. The AI platform is part of a broader digital transformation plan aimed at aligning Egypt's healthcare sector with international best practices. The collaboration between WHO and the General Authority for Healthcare focuses on six key areas, including joint research, the establishment of a WHO-accredited emergency medical team, and the launch of a Collaboration Centre specialising in clinical governance and infection control. These initiatives are designed to enhance care quality and safety across Egypt's healthcare infrastructure.
