Technical Assistance for Science Park Development in Egypt

January 2008 - A workshop on the development of a science and technology park (technopolis) in Egypt was organized in Alexandria on 23-24 January 2008. The workshop followed up the UNESCO mission to Egypt in July 2007 to assist the Egyptian government in formulating a National strategy for the Development of Science Parks and in establishing a Business Plan for the future Mubarak Science Park in Alexandria. During the two-day workshop, the participants discussed these two documents prepared by the UNESCO experts. Once the documents have been finalized, they will be published online on this page. The Mubarak Science Park will serve as a UNESCO pilot project for the development of other parks in the Arab region.
