The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF) successfully concluded the fourth edition of the Youth
Knowledge Forum (YKF), which was held in collaboration with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Egypt’s
Ministry of Youth and Sports through the Knowledge Youth Office. The event was held at the Cairo University Theatre on July 20
and 21, 2025, convening a distinguished group of experts and pioneers in this field.

The second and final day of YKF featured several in-depth discussions on key themes, including entrepreneurship, its challenges,
and the stages of development. The sessions also examined Egypt’s diverse entrepreneurial projects, the financial hurdles
hindering their establishment and growth, as well as strategies for attracting investment and managing risk. Additionally, the event
highlighted several inspiring entrepreneurial models and concluded with an open discussion, where young participants shared their
future goals.

His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, said: “The Youth Knowledge Forum is a dynamic platform for empowering
young people and cultivating a culture of entrepreneurship and investment across the region. We, at MBRF, believe that
constructive dialogues play a crucial role in strengthening the regional business landscape and promoting innovative
entrepreneurial projects. Such initiatives further underscore the joint efforts of the UAE and the Arab Republic of Egypt to drive
economic development and enhance the role of youth in society. We look forward to organizing more such impactful events which
promote cooperation, and meaningful dialogue, further supporting the Foundation’s vision of enhancing innovation and
entrepreneurship.”
