Meet the first six startups to graduate from AUC Venture Labs

In the wake of three years of revolutions and political turmoil, many policymakers- both local and global- have touted entrepreneurship as the solution for stability in the Egyptian economy. Under these circumstances, the American University of Cairo (AUC) has announced its first round of graduates at AUC V-Lab, the first incubator associated with a university in Egypt.

The program, which was launched last July by the Entrepreneurship and Innovation program at AUC’s School of Business, started its first cycle last September, aiming to “support Egyptian startups with academic, financial and programmatic advice to help them develop viable projects,” says Ayman Ismail, the program’s designer and an Assistant Professor at AUC.

At a final pitch day, graduates debuted various ideas in logistical, technical, industrial, social and media sectors.
