This year’s edition is expected to have the highest number of participants compared to previous editions, Gendy said, noting that this reflects the ministry’s dedicated efforts to engaging with expatriates who wish to connect with their home country.

The conference will also feature field tours to various industrial cities and key investment zones, providing expatriates with firsthand information on potential investment opportunities.

Building on the successes of the previous edition, which fulfilled long-standing aspirations of expats such as the tax-free vehicle import law, this year's conference aims for broader participation from Egyptian expats around the globe, Minister Gendy stated.

Furthermore, the fourth edition will address the challenges faced by Egyptian communities abroad and focus on their essential needs, she added.
