Launched by an Egyptian tech entrepreneur, the solution aims to be a flexible and accessible tool to help young Arabs access diverse training programs, allowing them to learn at their own pace, regardless of their skill level.

EYouth is an EdTech platform developed by an Egyptian startup, offering digital skills training programs tailored for youth, professionals, and entrepreneurs seeking to enhance their expertise.

The platform features a mobile app, available on iOS and Android, which has already been downloaded over a thousand times, according to Play Store data. Users can create an account and access a variety of courses, including content creation, graphic design, digital marketing, and data analysis.

EYouth also develops programs on financial education in Egypt, digital literacy training, awareness campaigns on the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and stock market knowledge. Beyond short-term courses, the startup has launched tech scholarship programs, enabling young Arabs to learn the fundamentals of programming and artificial intelligence (AI). The goal is to enhance their employability and understanding of global trends, better preparing them for the job market.

Founded in 2016 by Mostafa Abdel Latif, the startup recently secured $6 million in funding to expand its training offerings, integrate advanced educational technologies, and reach a wider audience across Egypt and the MENA region (North Africa and the Middle East).

"To date, we have developed the skills of over three million young people. Through this partnership, we aim to accelerate and empower an additional one million youth to unlock their potential and drive innovation across Africa and the Middle East," said Mostafa Abdel Latif, founder of EYouth.
