About the Challenge

Making profits and contributing to the alleviation of social, economic, and environmental problems at the same time? This has long ceased to be a contradiction. Entrepreneurship businesses now aim at combining entrepreneurial activities with a commitment to social-economic responsibility and to the achievement of the United Nations (UN) sustainability goals, including poverty, health, education, empowerment, and environment.

With this spirit in mind, FEPS BI will organize an Entrepreneurship Competition. X Challenge competition is calling for all university students and Faculty! FEPS is pleased to launch the 2nd edition of this competition, virtually. It aims to develop the spirit of entrepreneurship among university students all over Egypt, from various academic levels, to enable them to convert their innovative ideas into successful business plans for products and services of high socio-economic value. FEPS BI promises to elevate the participants with a summer camp program and a bootcamp to help them validate their submitted ideas, discover their skills, and engage them with a network of mentors.
