The Information Technology Industry Development Agency (ITIDA) and CREATIVA Innovation Hubs are co-organizing an online orientation session on the Information Technology Academia Collaboration (ITAC) initiative programs, on February 6. The session targets university students, researchers and faculty members at Egyptian universities.
The session will shed light on the Graduation Projects Support program, which aims to support final-year students at the faculties of engineering, computer science, and information systems at Egyptian universities and institutes, with graduation projects in ICT. A group of experts evaluate the submitted projects and select the best of them to receive fund of up to EGP 10,000 per project.
Moreover, the session will highlight the Collaborative Funded Projects (CFP) program for researchers and faculty members, as well as the Summer Internships Support program that is offered to university students interested in landing training opportunities at ICT companies during the summer vacation.
ITAC aims to boost the Egyptian IT industry by enhancing collaboration between industry and academia to help develop innovative products, thus positioning Egyptian companies at the forefront of the local and global IT markets.
