Egypt is rapidly becoming a global IT hotspot 🌟, with foreign companies flocking to its tech sector for cost-effective solutions and skilled talent. Over 75,000 new jobs are projected in the next three years as outsourcing giants expand operations in Cairo and beyond. 🚀
"Egypt’s strategic location and multilingual workforce make it a goldmine for tech investments," says Iyad Hafez, CEO of Staff Arabia Group. With time zones aligning seamlessly with Europe and the Middle East, companies are setting up customer service hubs, software development centers, and HR operations here. 💻
Government-backed incentives under Egypt’s Vision 2030 strategy are turbocharging growth. Digital exports have already doubled since 2022, hitting $4.8 billion last year 📈—now accounting for 6% of the country’s GDP. "We’re not just exporting products anymore—we’re exporting expertise," Hafez adds.
While challenges like internet speed persist, initiatives to upgrade infrastructure and train young professionals are underway. As one economist put it: "Egypt’s tech revolution is just getting started." 🔌
