CEO of EEA Amr Mansi said that the evaluation committees of the participating companies include a group of the best experts and consultants in addition to a distinguished advisory board that includes a group of the largest economists and entrepreneurship experts in Egypt who conduct an integrated study of the companies of entrepreneurs based on accurate and recognised criteria.

The criteria for evaluating companies include the suitability of companies’ ideas to the nature of the society to which they belong, the scalability of the project, innovation, and competitive advantages.

Moreover, the sustainability of these ideas is essential, as they have to comply with the 17 sustainable development goals, given that Egypt will host the Conference of Parties on Change Climate (COP 27) in Sharm El Sheikh this November.
