The Top 50 Women Forum announced on Monday that the Third Egyptian Women’s Summit is scheduled to take place on March 3-4 under the auspices of Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly.
The Egyptian Women’s Summit 2024 aims to foster significant discussions on gender equality, combat various forms of gender discrimination, and establish funding and rehabilitation mechanisms to advance women’s empowerment. In collaboration with the European Union and in partnership with the Egyptian National Council for Women (NCW), the two-day event will kick off under the theme “A 360° Guide toward a Prosperous Life.”
The Summit will bring together influential women from diverse industries and generations, alongside senior government officials, EU ambassadors, private sector representatives, international organizations, and developmental initiatives.

In a first for this year’s Summit, the Entrepreneurial Investor Competition: Empowering and Uniting will be introduced to promote women’s entrepreneurship and recognize impactful projects during the exhibition.
The event will also host EU-supported coaching sessions on career readiness, team building, mastering your career, essential skills for success, and habits of the most effective people. Supported by Pathfinder, workshops will cover financial inclusion and women’s social empowerment.
