MBRF and UNDP to organise 4th edition of Youth Knowledge Forum in Egypt
The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) will jointly organize the fourth edition of the 'Youth Knowledge Forum' (YKF) under the theme 'Knowledge Economy and Human Development' in the Arab Republic of Egypt. The event will be held in partnership with the Egyptian Ministry of Youth and Sports (MOYS) in Cairo from 20 to 21 July 2025. YKF will be organized as part of ongoing strategic collaborations aimed at fostering innovation and enhancing the role of youth in advancing knowledge-based development, while empowering them to become key drivers of sustainable development. YKF is a leading intellectual platform that convenes the youth and key decision-makers from various sectors to exchange vital insights and explore solutions to mitigate prevalent challenges. Its primary aim is to devise innovative solutions, which can help bolster the knowledge economy, support entrepreneurship, equip youth with future-ready skills, and reinforce regional and international cooperation among stakeholders invested in youth empowerment. The event builds on the dedicated efforts of MBRF and MOYS, which played a key role in the success of the forum's previous edition. It aims to expand on the achievements made and further enhance its impact. The initiative also reflects MOYS's continued commitment to empowering Egyptian youth with the tools and support they need to shape a bright and prosperous future. Dr. Ashraf Sobhy, Minister of Youth and Sports, stated that Egypt's role as the host of YKF's fourth edition reflects the country's commitment to supporting and empowering youth, positioning them as a key pillar in building the New Republic, under the leadership of H.E. President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi. He emphasized that YKF serves as a key dialogue platform for enhancing young people's knowledge and skills, while expanding their intellectual horizons in innovation, entrepreneurship, and the digital economy. He also praised the fruitful partnership between MBRF and UNDP, which underscores the depth of Arab and international cooperation in youth empowerment and human development. His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, highlighted that the fourth edition of YKF reflects MBRF's longstanding efforts to position the youth as key contributors to ensure a highly innovative and sustainable future. He further stated: 'Through this forum, we aim to foster a proactive culture aimed at enhancing the youths' ability to address future challenges. This can be achieved not only by providing them with the requisite tools, but also by inspiring them to generate solutions and drive social change through the localization and application of knowledge. We are pleased to forge this constructive collaboration with MOYS, further highlighting both entities shared commitment to driving the transition towards an inclusive knowledge economy, one that opens new avenues for Arab youth to become leaders of development and pillars of progress.' 'As the world rapidly transitions towards a knowledge-based economy, empowering youth and enhancing their knowledge and skills has become an essential priority. Egyptian youth possess the ambition and innovation required to become key partners in advancing the country's development. In close partnership with the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation, through the Knowledge Project and UNDP's programmes in Egypt, we remain committed to supporting initiatives that strengthen youth capacities and expand their horizons,' said Mr. Ghimar Deeb, Acting Resident Representative of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Egypt. 'Through a range of initiatives, UNDP Egypt equips young people with critical skills in areas such as digital transformation, entrepreneurship, and the green economy, ensuring their active and meaningful contribution to sustainable development.' YKF's agenda will feature a rich lineup of impactful panel discussions and interactive dialogues on key topics related to public and development policies in the age of the knowledge economy. It will also explore ways to foster strategic cooperation and integration between governments and international institutions in this field, while addressing the growing challenges of misinformation in the digital age and the powerful role of digital media in raising awareness among Generation Alpha. In addition, the event will delve into entrepreneurship and obstacles faced by startups, showcasing inspiring success stories of young entrepreneurs from Egypt and the wider Arab world. Furthermore, discussions will be held on human capital development amid ongoing digital transformation, exploring key themes such as reforming educational systems, enhancing digital and entrepreneurial skills, integrating formal and informal learning, and shifting the focus from traditional education to lifelong learning. It will also highlight the growing impact of AI on the job market and the knowledge economy, while also addressing ethical AI practices in modern societies. Other topics will focus on the role of arts in development, the current state of entrepreneurship in Egypt and the region, entrepreneurs' success stories, and mechanisms to empower startups to become more sustainable and innovative. YKF will conclude with a youth open dialogue, providing a platform for them to share the challenges they face and their aspirations for the future. This will serve as a safe space for the youth to share their ideas, catalyzing the creation of a knowledge-based Arab society grounded in the energy and potential of its youth. It will further reinforce a culture of dialogue, openness and lifelong learning, reflecting both parties' commitment to strengthening knowledge cooperation among Arab nations, while presenting an effective model for youth empowerment as well as creating a positive impact across all sectors and shaping a prosperous and progressive future.

Shares gain ahead of key US earnings and data, while trade talks loom
Shares climbed worldwide and the dollar held onto most of its July gains on Tuesday as market participants entered a key week for U.S. earnings, inflation data and trade talks in a relatively optimistic mood. U.S. President Donald Trump threatened over the weekend to impose 30% duties on the European Union and Mexico from August 1 - above the 20% on the EU he had initially proposed in April. However, giving support to investor bets that the final levels will be lower, Trump said on Monday he was open to further negotiations before the tariffs kick in. Japan is also reportedly trying to schedule high-level talks with the U.S. this Friday. "At face value it (the tariff level for Europe) was clearly worse than expected," said Andrzej Szczepaniak, senior Europe economist at Nomura. "However, this is likely to be seen as a bargaining tool ahead of 1 August, in line with how investors perceived most letters (from Trump to trading partners) from last week." "This view is likely only to be materially challenged as we get much closer to 1 August." MSCI's world share index rose 0.16% on Tuesday and is a whisker away from last week's all-time highs. Europe's STOXX 600 rose 0.2%, underperforming MSCI's broad APAC ex-Japan benchmark, up 1%, and Nasdaq futures up 0.6%, with both gaining after Nvidia said it would resume sales of its H20 chips to China. EARNINGS AND INFLATION The focus is now shifting to the U.S. earnings season which begins on Tuesday, with second-quarter reports from major banks. S&P 500 profits are expected to rise 5.8% year-over-year, according to LSEG data. The outlook has dimmed sharply since the early April forecast of 10.2% growth, before Trump launched his trade war. Investors will be looking for any tariff impact, as they will in U.S. inflation data also due on Tuesday. Recent prints have shown little impact from tariffs on broader price pressures, though the data is expected to show a rebound in gasoline prices and higher costs for some tariff-sensitive goods. Oil prices were also boosting stock market sentiment on Tuesday as they edged lower after Trump issued a 50-day deadline for Russia to end the war in Ukraine to avoid energy sanctions, easing immediate supply concerns. Brent futures were last down 0.2%. JAPANESE ELECTION It is not just U.S. politics that is top of mind for global investors, with an upcoming election to Japan's upper house shaking up the Japanese government bond market and spilling over into other markets. Polls show the ruling coalition may lose its majority in the upper house to opponents who advocate more spending. Worries about the impact on Japan's already-frail finances caused Japanese government bond prices to plunge for another day, with the benchmark 10-year yield rising to 1.595%, its highest since October 2008. Higher Japanese yields have also been factors in sending long-dated European and even U.S. yields higher in recent days, though Germany's 30-year yield, which hit a near two-year high Monday, was down 5 basis points on Tuesday at 3.20%. The benchmark U.S. 10-year Treasury yield was down 1 bp at 4.42%. Also in Asia, data showed China's economy slowed less than expected in the second quarter in a show of resilience against U.S. tariffs. In currency markets, the dollar was a touch weaker against European currencies, with the euro and pound both up around 0.2% at $1.1684 and $1.13449 respectively. Both were bouncing from over two-week lows hit the previous day, however. Gold strengthened 0.5% to $3,361 per ounce, while spot silver gained 0.3% to $38.25 per ounce after hitting its highest since September 2011 in the previous session.
