Figures from state statistics agency Capmas showed the urban annual rate of inflation jumped to 21.3% in December, up from 18.7% the month before, driven by surging food costs. This is the highest rate since December 2017, and is up from just 5.9% in December 2021.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"tldr-story-02\" class=\"content-anchor\"><\/a> <strong>#2<\/strong><strong>- Our first look at the tax policy document: <\/strong>Finance Minister Mohamed Maait gave us our first snippet into the highly-anticipated five-year tax policy document during a presser earlier today.

Once it learns a person\u2019s voice, it can continue to generate audio of that person saying anything \u2014 while attempting to retain the speaker's emotional tone. VALL-E can potentially be used for audio content creation if paired with other AI models like GPT-3 and for text-to-speech applications, wherein a person\u2019s recording may be altered, by modifying the written transcript, to make them say something they did not actually say.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The software giant is mulling big moves in the AI space:<\/strong> Microsoft is considering making a USD 10 bn investment in OpenAI, creator of the popular artificial intelligence chatbot <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/64f2ecb9-952a-4523-9e99-71ad34c93ddb\">ChatGPT<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2023-01-10\/microsoft-weighs-10-billion-chatgpt-investment-semafor-says?srnd=premium&sref=mmeFTDW1&leadSource=uverify wall\">Bloomberg<\/a> reports, citing unnamed sources familiar with the company\u2019s plans. The agreement being considered would entail Microsoft investing the money over several years, but the final terms are subject to change.The funding, which will include other VCs, would value OpenAI at USD 29 bn, including Microsoft\u2019s investment, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.semafor.com\/article\/01\/09\/2023\/microsoft-eyes-10-billion-bet-on-chatgpt\">Semafor<\/a> reports. Although it is unclear whether a final agreement has been reached, documents recently distributed to prospective investors explaining its terms had signaled the agreement was targeting a closing date at the end of 2022. The company, which previously invested around USD 1 bn in OpenAI, is currently working on adding ChatGPT to its Bing search engine, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/technology\/microsoft-aims-ai-powered-version-bing-information-2023-01-04\/\">Reuters<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"grey-line\">\n<p><a class=\"content-anchor\" id=\"tldr-story-04\"><\/a> <strong>You can now have your shot at a second life for just <\/strong><strong>EUR 50 a month<\/strong><strong>: <\/strong>An emerging field known as cryogenics, where human bodies are preserved after their death in hopes of future scientific and medical treatments helping to resurrect them decades after, is gaining ground despite doctors\u2019 and scientists\u2019 reservations. Bodies of people whose lives were cut short by a disease are transported to \u201csuspension facilities,\u201d where medical teams replace blood with a chemical mixture that prevents them from freezing when they are stored in -196\u00b0C liquid nitrogen, Parmy Olson writes for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/opinion\/articles\/2023-01-08\/want-to-avoid-death-maybe-cryonics-isn-t-crazy?sref=mmeFTDW1&leadSource=uverify wall\">Bloomberg<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The goal is then for future medical teams to find the cures of the disease that ailed their<\/strong><strong> bodies and use them to treat and resurrect them. <\/strong>Some 500 people, mostly in the US, have now been put in cryogenic stasis after their legal death, with thousands on waitlists. All they need to do is pay a roughly EUR 50 subscription fee to the cryogenics firm and for a life ins. policy, which, instead of going to the deceased\u2019s family, will instead go to the company to fund their work, cryonics business <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomorrow.bio\/\">Tomorrow Biostasis<\/a> tells Olson.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unsurprisingly, there are countless caveats: <\/strong>The glorified mummification technique is \u2014 as it stands \u2014 based more on wishful thinking and faith in the evolution of science rather than actual scientific evidence. Scientists would need to discover a way to reverse death, as well as learn more about how brains \u2014 which are very complex and delicate organs \u2014 would be impacted by the decades-long freeze, Olson writes. Despite the fact that the field has been labeled a form of pseudoscience and \u201cquackery\u201d by some doctors, Olson argues that there is merit to the field, especially since some scientific feats that were previously unimaginable \u2014 think nine-hour-late CPR \u2014 have somehow become a reality.<\/p>\n\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\/ai\/\">AI<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/for-your-commute\/\">FOR YOUR COMMUTE<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/microsoft\/\">microsoft<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/science\/\">science<\/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=\"580621\" 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                            \"\r\n            id=\"580621\">\r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"story__body\">\r\n\r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2023\/01\/10\/580621\/\">\r\n                    <div class=\"photo photo--above\">\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n\r\n                \n<article id=\"post-580621\" class=\"content-area-description single-story post-580621 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-uncategorized wpautop entry\">\n\n\t\n\t<div class=\"entry-content\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t<p class=\"web-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.palmhillsdevelopments.com\/en-us\/home\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ent.news\/2022\/12\/Palm-Hills-The-Crown-web-dec-22.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"enterprise\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"580622\" 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=\"580622\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">3<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">ENTERPRISE RECOMMENDS<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2023\/01\/10\/ginny-and-georgia-a-fraught-relationship-between-a-mother-and-daughter-with-more-commonalities-than-they-think\/\">\r\n                            Ginny and Georgia: A fraught relationship between a mother and daughter with more commonalities than they think                        <\/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\/2023\/01\/10\/ginny-and-georgia-a-fraught-relationship-between-a-mother-and-daughter-with-more-commonalities-than-they-think\/\" 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();

Georgia, who would do anything to protect her children, did some unjustifiable things in her past \u2014 including murder. The new season reveals more of Georgia\u2019s intentions behind each murder, and sheds light on Ginny\u2019s journey with therapy as a teenager and her various unhealthy coping mechanisms for having a mother whom she sometimes feels more mature than. While trying to relate to her mother\u2019s perspective in life, Ginny finds that she is just like her in some ways, and attempts to find sympathy in Georgina\u2019s horrific actions.<\/p>\n\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

Speaking to us this week is Mohamed Azab (<a href=\"https:\/\/eg.linkedin.com\/in\/mohamed-azab-114a8417\">LinkedIn<\/a>), co-founder of healthcare company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seha.healthcare\">Seha Healthcare<\/a> and pharma platform <a href=\"https:\/\/grinta.ai\/home\">Grinta<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My name is Mohamed Azab, and I am a business owner and founder.<\/strong> I sold my first business, Hassab Labs, in 2015. It grew out of Alexandria to become a top lab firm in the country before expanding into Morocco, where it was acquired by a large Moroccan group.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I subsequently co-founded my second venture, Seha Healthcare<\/strong>, a healthcare platform designed for the middle-income segment. We invest in hospitals and polyclinics.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our latest startup, Grinta, is a B2B e-commerce platform that connects pharma manufacturers with independent pharmacies in Egypt.<\/strong> The goal is to make meds accessible across Africa. Over the next two to three years, we intend to grow into Morocco, Nigeria, and Kenya.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I have always been an entrepreneur at heart.<\/strong> I prefer to build things, rather than being a part of the wheel, and I look to introduce concepts that will really impact the market. This is why I chose to delve into the healthcare sector despite having studied finance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Grinta is trying to solve the issue of pharma access in Africa.<\/strong> Further south, you\u2019ll find counterfeit meds, a severe lack of infrastructure, and very limited access to medical care. We are attempting to digitize that last mile of the pharma value chain across the continent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The best part of my job is having a purpose.<\/strong> I believe that having a mission and a purpose are crucial. I also enjoy the ability to reinvent myself while running different businesses \u2014 a hospital, for instance, is a brick-and-mortar business heavy on assets, whereas Grinta is all about super fast growth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There is no worst part of my job, but one of the biggest challenges<\/strong> at Grinta was raising our seed round during the pandemic, when global markets weren\u2019t doing great and people had stopped investing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Seha Healthcare has raised roughly USD 20 mn in the last five years, and Grinta has raised USD 9.5 mn since its inception last year.<\/strong> We aim to raise USD 20 mn or more for Grinta in the future. So far, Grinta\u2019s investors include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/raedvc\/\">Raed Ventures<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nclude.com\">Nclude<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/endeavor.org\">Endeavor Catalyst<\/a>, as well as some Asian angel investors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The KPIs that I look at change with time.<\/strong> We were focused on expansion at Grinta five to six months ago, but now we\u2019re more concerned with growing steadily. There\u2019s this great quote: \u201cWith chaos comes revenue, and with discipline comes profitability.\u201d This explains the arc of our business.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Being a founder of a startup is a lonely journey if you are a solo founder.<\/strong> In my situation, I\u2019m far from lonely because I have partners and we go through the journey together.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Grinta is a long-term play \u2014 I don\u2019t see myself exiting in the next five to seven years<\/strong>, but it would be a success to have an IPO outside of Egypt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I always listen to the <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.google.com\/search\/Masters of Scale with Reid Hoffman\">Masters of Scale<\/a><\/strong><strong> podcast with Reed Hoffman.<\/strong> I also recently watched <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/title\/80120485\">The Mechanism<\/a>, a Netflix drama about Brazilian politics. The resemblance between Latin America and our region is shocking. I\u2019m also into reading Sufi books. It\u2019s spiritual and gives me a good balance in life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I consider myself extremely lucky to be part of the Endeavor entrepreneurs network.<\/strong> I\u2019ve been a member since 2012 and have served on Endeavor Egypt\u2019s board since 2016. It provides a great amount of inspiration. I\u2019m especially fond of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.careem.com\">Careem<\/a> founders, Mudassir Sheikha (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/mudassirsheikha\/recent-activity\/posts\/\">LinkedIn<\/a>) and Abdullah Elyas (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/abdullaelyas\/?originalSubdomain=sa\">LinkedIn<\/a>). The way they grew their business throughout the region, from Pakistan to Morocco, is very impressive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I choose my team based on the 3 Vs: Vision, values, and value added.<\/strong> I am also a big believer in women\u2019s empowerment, so I try to reflect this in my companies as much as possible. I would love to see more women co-founders \u2014 like our CTO, Yosra Badr (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/yosra-badr-95a0354a\/?originalSubdomain=eg\">LinkedIn<\/a>) \u2014 in tech going forward.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mentoring is important to me.<\/strong> My co-founders and I are committed to assisting other entrepreneurs and investing in new startups.
