Three Egyptian startups made Disrupt Africa’s list of “12 African startups to watch in 2019”: Elves, a personal assistant app, raised USD 2 mn in seed funding at the end of 2017, which gave it room for expansion and growth in 2018. Shezlong, an online psychotherapy platform, raised USD 350k in funding last year and presented at the African Early Stage Investor summit. Halan, a tuk-tuk and motorbike ride-hailing app, last year also raised multi-mns during a series A round.
