What to Know About The Campaign
Over 10 days ago the Ministry of Planning and Economic Development represented by ‘Rowad 2030’ project has announced the launch of the ‘One Million Entrepreneurs’ campaign.
The Minister of Planning and Economic Development, Hala EL-Said stated that entrepreneurship has an important role in economic growth as it can provide creative solutions to economic challenges.
