Creative Industry is the first and only hub for the creative ecosystem devoted to Egypt’s creatives and their work in the fields of design, advertising, marketing, branding, fashion, and film.
Our launch event in June 2014 featured top marketing and branding executives from companies including Vodafone, Google, Dubizzle, Nile FM, Nestlé, PepsiCo, Financial Times, and MBC Group, in addition to reputable agencies such as Saatchi & Saatchi, Hit Creative Communication, Digital Republic, TRACCS, and Media-Sci.
This year, Creative Industry returns in an elegant atmosphere at Zamalek Palace, featuring talks, hands-on workshops, and panel discussions led by industry experts, in addition to networking sessions with a variety of corporates and creative agencies to provide attendees with valuable leads and opportunities to get started.
