Managing Director and CEO Tamer El Mahdi said innovation was no longer a choice
but the foundation of sustainable growth, national resilience, and
technological leadership. He added that empowering innovators, researchers, and
entrepreneurs was essential to building a stronger digital economy and

innovation.
The lab
represents a platform where innovation moves from concept to impact, according
to El Mahdi. Further details on the lab's programmes and access for innovators
were not immediately disclosed.
