His Excellency Jamal Bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, said: “MBRF’s participation in the Cairo

International Book Fair seamlessly aligns with our commitment to engaging in international
knowledge events that promote knowledge exchange. As one of the most significant platforms
for intellectual interaction in the Arab world, the fair annually convenes knowledge pioneers,

publishers, and creatives to foster collaboration, share expertise, and explore new
opportunities within knowledge-driven communities. Moreover, the event is poised to further

bolster the publishing industry and drive creativity and innovation while contributing to the
broader sustainable development of society.

At the event, MBRF will organize a series of panel discussions and knowledge-based
sessions covering literature, science, and knowledge domains. It will also facilitate new book

launches in the literature, science, and children’s literature genres. MBRF will also hold
meetings with regional and international strategic partners and representatives from the
publishing and knowledge industries.

The previous edition of the Cairo International Book Fair convened 1,200 publishing houses

from the Arab world and beyond, representing a total of 70 countries. It also featured an
exemplary lineup of 550 cultural activities and 120 artistic events, facilitating insightful
discussions and interactions led by prominent personalities from the fields of culture and arts.

The 12-day event was a remarkable success, attracting over 4.8 million visitors and fostering
high levels of engagement.
