Saxony-Egypt University For Applied Science and Technology to be inaugurated in April 2025
CAIRO – 16 March 2025: Ambassador to Berlin Mohamed al-Badry met earlier this week Prime Minister of Germany's Saxony State Michael Kretschmer in the framework of preparations for his visit to Egypt on April 8-10 where he will inaugurate Saxony-Egypt University For Applied Science and Technology (SEU) located in Cairo's Badr City.
The meeting was also attended by Saxony State Minister for Economic Affairs, Labor, Energy and Climate Protection Dirk Panter as there were discussions on bolstering trade exchange between Egypt and the state, and cooperating on renewable energy and green hydrogen projects, especially in the Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCzone).
Similarly, the ambassador met the CEOs of the trade and industry chambers of Dresden and Leipzig to confer over collaboration on the same kind of projects, as well as vocational training. An existing successful example that Egypt aims to replicate is the Red Sea's Al Gouna hospitality school, which is an Egyptian-German joint venture.
