PUA Concludes Intra-Africa 2063 Forum

Demonstrating its strategic leadership in fostering pan-African innovation, PUA successfully concluded the fifth edition of the Intra-Africa 2063 Forum, held under the theme “Africa by Africans: Innovation for a Sustainable and Scalable Future.” Jointly organized by the International Relations Department and the Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center (IEC), the forum convened academic leaders, investors, and emerging student entrepreneurs across Africa.

The closing ceremony, chaired by Prof. Dr. Nourhan Fanaki, PUA’s Vice President and IEC’s General Supervisor, celebrated the forum’s milestones in driving entrepreneurship and cultural exchange. On the sidelines, PUA signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the International Federation of Arab Businessmen and Investors Abroad (IFBIA), establishing a vital bridge between academia and investment sectors to fund and scale high-potential student ventures.

Participating student teams presented their innovative projects before an expert judging panel, who evaluated the proposals and provided actionable business mentorship. The final evaluations resulted in awarding five standout teams. The event concluded with certificates of recognition distributed to all participants and organizers, underscoring PUA’s commitment to empowering African youth and building sustainable continental partnerships.
