Continued inflationary pressures and import restrictions, coupled with weaker consumer demand, weighed on last month\u2019s reading, which was flat at 47.6 last month. This is still below the 50.0 mark that separates expansion from contraction, marking the 22nd consecutive month that the gauge indicates a decline in Egypt\u2019s private sector activity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE BIG STORY ABROAD<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Global financial markets are once again dominating the conversation in the international<\/strong><strong> business press this afternoon<\/strong>, picking up where we left off this morning.

Their findings have paved the way for new quantum information-based technology, where there \u201c is now a large field of research that includes quantum computers, quantum networks, and secure quantum encrypted communication,\u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The physics prize has frequently taken center stage among the world\u2019s most prestigious awards <\/strong>and has been handed to some of the most iconic figures from the world of science like Albert Einstein and Marie Curie. The prize honors scientific breakthroughs that have altered the way we view the world, and is worth SEK 10 mn.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"grey-line\">\n<p><strong>Could methanol-fueled cars be the new green alternative to traditional fuel?<\/strong> China is ramping up efforts to clamp down on emissions and reach carbon neutrality by exploring options beyond the electric vehicle, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.technologyreview.com\/2022\/09\/30\/1060508\/china-betting-methanol-cars\/\">MIT Technology Review<\/a> reports, citing information from the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and National Energy Administration. Even though China is a global leader in the adoption of electric vehicles, last month it said it would be accelerating the adoption of cars running off methanol cars and actively exploring new avenues to replace fossil fuels with energy sources like green hydrogen, methanol, and ammonia. 60% of the world\u2019s methanol is manufactured and used in China, mostly in plastics manufacturing. The country experimented with a methanol-fueled car model a decade around, tracking data on their economic and environmental impacts for six years and concluding the cars are 21% more energy efficient than gas cars and emit 26% less carbon dioxide.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kim Kardashian\u2019s latest endeavors in the crypto world? A USD 1.3 mn settlement charge.<\/strong> Reality TV star and serial entrepreneur Kim Kardashian has agreed to pay a USD 1.26 mn fee for failing to disclose that she was paid USD 250k for an Instagram story she posted promoting the cryptocurrency EMAX, the US Securities and Exchange Commission said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/news\/press-release\/2022-183\">statement<\/a>. Despite writing \u201c#ad\u201d in the story \u2014 indicating it was a paid post \u2014 the commission said that she needed to also share the exact amount she was paid for her endorsement. \u201cThis case is a reminder that, when celebrities or influencers endorse [potential investments], including crypto asset securities, it doesn\u2019t mean that those investment products are right for all investors,\u201d the SEC chair said.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div

href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/eg-en\/title\/81424332\">Saga:<\/a><\/strong> The three-part docuseries takes a lighthearted look at all the factors that drove then-loss making GameStop\u2019s stock to dizzying heights in the first few months of 2021. The gist of what happened in real life (and in the Netflix docuseries) is as follows: GameStop was the most-shorted company on Wall Street in 2020, as hedge fund managers predicted the heavily brick-and-mortar store selling physical media would go belly up in an increasingly digital world (which goes double for the video-game industry itself). What started out as a sound assumption quickly spiraled out of control. When some astute number-crunching Redditors realized how much money was stacked against GameStop's survival, they swooped in and sent the stock price soaring in January 2021. The information is presented in an entertaining way, and is food for thought on how the GameStop frenzy could be somewhat of a template for future trends in retail investments (<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/P8jtdao1zkE\">watch trailer, runtime 1:51<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"content-anchor\" id=\"tldr-story-05\"><\/a> \u26bd <strong>Champions League nights are our favorite nights:<\/strong> Inter Milan plays Barcelona in the third round of the group of death at 9pm, while Bayern Munich plays Victoria Plzen at 6:45pm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In a real test of their Champions League run, Liverpool will play an important match against the Scottish Rangers at 9pm<\/strong>.

The book seems to have passed this difficult test fairly well thanks to its meticulous, interdisciplinary approach and Thompson\u2019s admirable ability to not only hold expertise in the three major themes but to examine events with analytical detachment. But make no mistake, this is no breezy read. The modern history book traces the development of the current political climate over many years, and tells three overlapping stories \u2014 geopolitics, the global economy, and Western democracies \u2014 and shows how the years of political unrest prior to the pandemic coalesced into one major narrative.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/eat-this-tonight\/\">Eat This Tonight<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/enterprise-recommends\/\">Enterprise Recommends<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/on-the-tube-tonight\/\">On The Tube Tonight<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/sports\/\">sports<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"552859\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"552859\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">4<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">GO WITH THE FLOW<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2022\/10\/04\/what-the-markets-are-doing-on-4-october-2022\/\">\r\n                            What the markets are doing on 4 October, 2022                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2022\/10\/04\/what-the-markets-are-doing-on-4-october-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

Speaking to us this week is Waleed Sadek, founder and CEO of PaySky (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/waleed-sadek\/\">LinkedIn<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>My name is Waleed Sadek, and I am the founder and CEO of <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/paysky.io\/\">PaySky<\/a><\/strong><strong>.<\/strong> I've been in the payment industry for 17 years. I\u2019m actually a medical doctor by study and training, but I've been interested in tech since my first year of medical school. I began learning programming and developing products alongside school. By the time I finished, I was already a senior manager and had worked at several companies, including multinationals. Eventually I decided to stick with software engineering.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I worked for several multinational corporations before launching my own business, and then<\/strong> <strong>Visa became one of my clients<\/strong>. We were meeting their objectives efficiently, so they offered me a job. I was in my early twenties, so I decided to leave the startup world for a while and join them because it was a fantastic chance to learn about and enter the financial services space. I was the head of innovations in the Middle East and North Africa before moving to London to lead the CEMEA strategy. My time at Visa was eye-opening, but the entrepreneurial siren began calling again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I began by expanding on the knowledge I gained at Visa and researching the gaps I discovered there that no one was addressing.<\/strong> Because the market was not moving in the direction I expected it to, I considered doing it myself. I left Visa, formed a team, and founded PaySky, an innovative and disruptive company that has made significant changes in the region.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you believe in your business, you put all of your cards on the table.<\/strong> I actually put all of my investments and savings into PaySky at some point. It was risky, but I had complete faith in what we were doing, and it has proven to be extremely successful and rewarding.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The most enjoyable aspect of my job is getting to strategize, execute, and deliver solutions<\/strong> for the market and industry. Working in a corporation has many advantages and perks, but you are still part of a larger scheme and are responsible for achieving the company's goals. When you start your own business, you get to create and deliver your own vision.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What I like about the startup environment is the fast-paced growth, agility, and ability to respond to market changes in hours<\/strong> rather than days or months as corporates would. However, the start-up environment is fraught with anxiety. As responsibilities increase, so does the stress. When you grow, you hire more people and feel responsible for their families.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If I could give one piece of advice to someone thinking about starting their own business, it would be to master their space before attempting to tackle or disrupt it. <\/strong>They must gain sufficient, solid ground knowledge by working in the space for some time. They should understand the problems and then come up with ideas to solve them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>At PaySky, we develop electronic payment solutions <\/strong>and then take these electronic payments and digital financial service solutions and either white-label them to financial institutions so that they can offer them to customers, or take them directly to consumers under the <a href=\"https:\/\/paysky.io\/yalla-app-explainer\/\">Yalla<\/a>brand. We are currently present in over ten markets, serving central banks, retail banks, telecom operators, and post institutions. We created a world-class payments infrastructure that aided in the promotion of electronic payments and financial inclusion in over ten countries. We are addressing the issue of access to efficient and innovative financial services.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We believe that efficient financial services are a must-have for a healthy economy<\/strong>. What we are creating will enable people who have previously been ignored or underserved to gain access to financial services. And we're connecting our day-to-day work with a higher purpose that we all want to believe we're working toward.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The first KPI we consider is purpose alignment.<\/strong> Every decision we make, we ask ourselves, \"Is this decision aligned with our purpose?\" Of course, there are financial metrics, revenue metrics, profitability metrics, and so on. However, our purpose is our reason for being.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I believe fundraising is overrated.<\/strong> Many people are losing sight of the importance of value creation and revenue generation in favor of focusing solely on fundraising. That is deceptive to future generations. It's become a metric of success \u2014 how much money have I raised? \u2014 which is far from accurate. If you can run your business without raising funds, you'll be much better off because you'll be keeping the equity for yourself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consumer experience and user experience are two of my major areas of interest. <\/strong>It's amazing how we build things from our own perspective and then consumers can have completely different reactions. We can be captives of our own assumptions, which is one of the major reasons why startups fail. They are creating solutions to non-existent problems. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Dont-Make-Me-Think-Usability\/dp\/0321344758\">Don't Make Me Think<\/a> by Steve Krug is a great book on the subject that I recently read.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I always look to data for inspiration. <\/strong>When you monitor the performance and transactions of your customers, the raw data is then transformed into insights. Data never lies. I also like to look at the market itself. When you enter a new territory, you get to survey their culture, their experiences, their apps, and their advertisements, and where they promote their own offerings. It reveals how people perceive value.<\/p>\n<p><strong>One local startup that has really impressed me is <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/eg\/app\/naqla\/id1496986888\">Naqla<\/a><\/strong>. They're attempting to Uberize, if you will, the process of truck transportation. It's a massively underserved sector of the economy, with challenges ranging from infrastructure to logistics to regulation.
