The Middle East Council for Small Businesses and Entrepreneurship (MCSBE) organized this year’s Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW) 2012 in Egypt.
Scarcely attended by businessmen and young entrepreneurs, the opening ceremony took place today at the Sawy Culture Wheel in Zamalek, as the kickoff of 95 entrepreneurial events, seminars and competitions, which will be taking place all over Egypt for the next week.
With a visible lack of governmental support, Ahmed Osman, Head of GEW Egypt, successfully managed to launch the GEW in Egypt, for the fourth year in a row. “In America, Barack Obama is opening the GEW, and in Britain, David Cameron is doing the same. But as we can see here today, this is not the case in Egypt,” Osman started his speech.
