Description:Sitting at the crossroads of Africa, Asia, and Europe, Egypt has a strong agricultural and manufacturing base, exceptional touristic and cultural heritage, and a vast domestic market. Building on this potential and meeting the needs of a fast-growing population, however, require major efforts to restructure the economy and create jobs. The Egyptian government recently launched a new national Economic Development Narrative that provides a renewed vision for the country’s development. It places the private sector at the heart of Egypt’s transformation, aligning with ongoing reforms to improve competitiveness, attract investment, and foster a more dynamic business environment. Join this session to learn more about Egypt’s efforts to foster new engines of jobs and growth. *Watch Event|https://meetingslogin.worldbank.org/en/asmeeting/event-detail/ems1900109*
