“We’re keen to be among drivers of change and innovation in the logistics startup field. We believe investing in incubation programs aligns perfectly with the general direction towards investing in startups operating across multiple fields as well as the government’s unprecedented support to further boost the country’s startup ecosystem. Studies showed that venture capital funding in Egypt-based startups reached $491 million in 2021 compared to $191 million in the previous year, recording a CAGR of 117 percent between 2017 and 2021. Nearly 42% of the total funding has gone to the transport, logistics and e-commerce industries,” said Leheta. “With the growth projections worldwide predicting an exponential surge in logistics and transport over the coming years, the market will definitely need the minds and capabilities of young businesses and startups with futuristic visions”.

 

“The main objective of launching Logivators is to enable entrepreneurs in transport and logistics to develop their start-ups and scale them up on different fronts, such as fulfilling the needs of the very dynamic market, getting foreign investments and creating new job opportunities. Startup-Factory team is honored to co-create Logivators with Egytrans and Cash Cows with a Corporate Venture Capital model that modernizes the logistics sector in Egypt with youth innovation. With this objective in mind, we were keen that participants get the most knowledge and insights in every step of the program.
