Women on the Move, a platform for supporting migrant women entrepreneurs, was held at Cairo on March 30th of 2018, organized by Startups Without Borders along with its partners Entreprenelle, Fard Foundation, The GrEEK Campus, Syrian network Khatwa, and UNHCR. Aiming to connect migrant and refugee entrepreneurs with Egypt’s local ecosystem, the event gathered over 250 entrepreneurs from from Syria, Yemen, Palestine, Iraq, Jordan, Eritrea, Sudan and South Sudan, at Egypt’s tech hub The GrEEK Campus.
“The passion, the grit, and the ingenuity of the entrepreneurs here today is a testament to the wealth that migrant entrepreneurs bring to every country they go to. This is why we want to lay the ground for a genuine migrant entrepreneurial ecosystem; we want these driven entrepreneurs to be able to access resources to start their businesses, wherever they are,” Valentina Primo, founder of Startups Without Borders, said in a statement.
