Abstract

Digital transformation offers Egypt a unique opportunity to transform several economic sectors such as financial services, retailing, healthcare, agriculture, and manufacturing while creating opportunities for individuals and enterprises and impacting inclusive development and economic growth. However, while digitalization can make a significant difference in the economy, it should be supported by the required technological infrastructure, human capital, and the appropriate legal, regulatory, and other enabling environments so that digital transformation becomes a platform for equity rather than divide. This paper reviews the current state of the economy, the evolution of information and communication technology in Egypt, and the potential impact digital transformation can have on society
