RiseUp Summit is an annual entrepreneurship and innovation event that takes place in Cairo, Egypt.[1] It has been described as "one of the largest gatherings of entrepreneurs in the region". It started in 2013 to bring the MENA region's entrepreneurship ecosystem together.[2] The summit is a three-day, entrepreneurship marathon. The first RiseUp Summit occurred in 2013.[2][3]
After attending Austin's SXSW for the first time, founding partner Muhammad M. Mansour was inspired to co-create RiseUp Summit, with the support of other ecosystem players.
