Egypt Forms Committee to Accelerate Digital Investment Services

The Ministry of Investment and Foreign Trade in Egypt has formed an executive committee to accelerate digital transformation across its affiliated entities, aiming to streamline procedures and reduce service times for investors and exporters.

The committee brings together representatives from multiple bodies to coordinate and implement digital integration plans, with a focus on linking services and simplifying administrative processes.

Minister Mohamed Farid Saleh said the move responds to shifting global and regional conditions, highlighting the need for continuous monitoring of international trade and supply chains to maintain a stable investment environment.

As part of the initiative, the ministry will conduct a comprehensive audit and restructuring of databases to establish a unified management system, improving data accuracy and supporting faster decision-making.

The meeting included leaders from key institutions such as the General Authority for Investment, Egypt Expo and Convention Authority, Egyptian Trade Representation Office and the Cotton Arbitration and Testing General Organisation, alongside representatives from trade agreements and training bodies.

Officials also reviewed plans to implement cabinet directives on resource conservation, including the expansion of remote work for eligible sectors to improve operational efficiency without affecting service delivery.
