Egypt Education Platform (EEP) participated in the AmCham Egypt Investment Conference, held at The Nile Ritz-Carlton on April 29, under the theme “Egypt’s Future as an Investment Hub.” The high-level event convened over 50 influential speakers and key stakeholders from across sectors to discuss strategies for sustainable and resilient growth in Egypt’s investment landscape.
Ahmed Wahby, Group CEO, Middle East and Africa at EEP and Co-Chair of the AmCham Education Committee, joined an insightful panel session titled “Bridging Gaps, Creating Opportunities: The Future of Education in Egypt.” The session featured prominent leaders including Dina Ghabbour, Chair of the Board of Trustees, Ghabbour Foundation for Development; Karim Moussa, Head of PE and Asset Management and Co-CEO, EFG Hermes; Nadia El-Tawil, Investment Officer, AfricInvest Group; Ahmed Lotfy Soliman, Managing Director, LS Investment Office; Ahmed ElKalla, Non-Executive Director, CIRA Education/SICE; Carina Fichard, Global Sector Lead – Education, IFC – International Finance Corporation; and Alaa Atif Tolba, CFA, Senior Director – SEIC, Public Investment Fund (PIF). The session was moderated by Ihab Rizk, Managing Partner at Morpho Investments.
During the discussion, Wahby highlighted Egypt’s long-standing role as a hub of educational excellence and the significant potential for exporting its education model to the region. He emphasized the strength of Egypt’s curricula, the quality and professionalism of its educators, and EEP’s success in striking a balance between quality and affordability—factors that have enabled EEP’s expansion into Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
EEP was honored to be part of this strategic dialogue, with several members of our leadership and management team in attendance. As a driving force in the education sector, EEP remains committed to leading conversations that shape the future of learning in Egypt and beyond.
