PAWAO goes Startups Without Borders

In May 2024, the PAWAO team had the privilege of attending the Startups Without Borders event in Cairo. We were immensely impressed by the vibrant and innovative venture ecosystem in Egypt. Meeting founders who are developing cutting-edge technologies for the MENA region was truly inspiring.

We were able to provide valuable insights, drawing from our experiences with similar services that have been established in Europe for some time. This exchange of knowledge was mutually beneficial and fostered a deeper understanding of the regional market.

A highlight of the event was a panel featuring the investors from Shark Tank Egypt. Their discussion on how a TV show can foster the venture ecosystem was both enlightening and motivational and it was nice to reconnect at the Investors Dinner after the panel.

This event was particularly valuable for PAWAO, as we strategically aim to expand our business into MENA. We are seeking investment opportunities and potential investors from this dynamic region. The connections and insights gained in Cairo have set a strong foundation for our future endeavors.
