Egypt's Opportunities
•
History
Egypt had one of the first centralized governments in the
world.
Parliament was introduced to Egypt in 1824; and the
Constitution in 1882.
There is a lively feeling of unity and compelling solidarity
among Egyptians despite witnessing several political
challenges and revolutions.
Egypt with time went through a number of wars,
invasions and revolutions, but had never been through
and always had been immune to any civil wars through
its history.

Geography
Egypt is located at the heart of the world. It is the point
of convergence of the three old continents Africa, Asia
and Europe.
Egypt's distinctive geographic location positioned it to
be globally ranked second in the submarine cable
business, with 18 maritime cable systems crossing
through its territory, seizing 16% of the global cable
business.
Its unique geographical location strengthens its
prospects to become a global hub for Internet services
and to attract foreign investments.
