We aim to increase the Students’ awareness of IT developments<blockquote class="uncited"> (1/3) Cooperation details:In an effort to reach out to various stakeholders, the Information Technology Industry Development Agency (ITIDA) is cooperating with UniMasr.com, a non-profit online community for Cairo Engineering Faculty. The cooperation aims at informing the students of Cairo University in general and those in the faculty of Engineering in particular of news, services, and initiatives related to the Information Technology industry and how they can participate in such drives.
The cooperation is a testimony to how ITIDA is aware of the importance of such a significant segment to the overall development of the industry that depends largely on the talent base that Egypt provides. This base is evident in the numbers of Egyptian University students and graduates who ultimately constitute the professional working force of the ICT industry.
Through this cooperation, the student community will be able to know more about the developments of the ICT sector, the programs impacting students and academic staff, and the various initiatives dedicated to this important layer of the society. UniMasr will be a significant partner that will relay these developments and news to its database surpassing 12,000 members. Members of UniMasr will be updated on every single opportunity that ITIDA offers. The opportunity might be summer training, graduation project sponsoring, research funding, small business supporting, competitions, seminars... and many more opportunities from ITIDA's ITAC and TIP programs.
ITIDA encourages similar online communities to come forward and identify themselves for similar partnerships and cooperation aiming at informing the students of all Egyptian universities of how Egypt is fast becoming one of the leading outsourcing destinations globally and the leading destination of the EMEA region.
