been collected over the centuries and used to fund services (burials), government projects, like the Egyptian pyramids or valuable substances (such as ammonia that was gleaned from \u2014 you guessed it \u2014 human urine, thanks <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/biography\/Vespasian\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Vespasian<\/a>). But the first organized taxation system was actually introduced by our very own grandfathers, the ancient Egyptians, according to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/history\/article\/160414-history-bad-taxes-tax-day#:~:text=Ancient%20Egypt%20was%20one%20of%20the%20first%20civilizations%20to%20have%20an%20organized%20tax%20system.\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">National Geographic<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Taxation existed before money even existed. <\/strong>Jumping back to Mesopotamia, citizens paid a tax to bury a body in a grave. It cost \u201cseven kegs of beer, 420 loaves, two bushels of barley, a wool cloak, a goat, and a bed, presumably for the corpse,\u201d according to Oklahoma State historian <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cas.okstate.edu\/department_of_history\/about_us\/faculty\/faculty_bios\/sharlach.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Tonia Sharlach<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Ancient Egyptian rulers surveyed the land and taxed citizens on what they owned.<\/strong> They would travel around the country to assess the possessions of the populace, which often included ceramics, cattle, and oil, and imposed taxes on them. This became an annual tradition known as Shemsu Hor, or Following of Horus. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>We also used tax tech, the Nilometer, which you can visit today.<\/strong> Located on the island of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/BufJj7RStQmCRbZA6\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Al-Roda in Manial<\/a>, it was a structure that was used to tax Egyptians by calculating the yearly flooding of the Nile in relation to the citizen\u2019s harvest. More water means a healthy harvest and higher taxes, and the opposite applies, lower water levels mean taxing the people less. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Then there was the lifelong tax exemption in India \u2014 if you could solve the government\u2019s <\/strong><strong>problems.<\/strong> During the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/history\/history-magazine\/article\/after-alexander-the-greats-death-this-indian-empire-rose\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Mauryan Empire<\/a> the government held an annual competition for ideas to solve issues they had. The victor would receive tax amnesty for the rest of their lives. Appealing? Yes. Successful? Not so much. According to Sharlach, the system was inefficient because \u201cnobody would have any incentive to ever solve more than one problem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>In ancient Rome, ammonia was a valuable commodity derived from human urine and <\/strong><strong>used to fertilize crops, make leather, or even whiten teeth.<\/strong> And like all valuable products, Roman emperor Vespasian figured out how to tax it. Even when his son disapproved of the tax, claiming it was repulsive, he responded \u201cPecunia non olet\u201d (money does not stink) and we can\u2019t decide how we feel about that. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The gift of tax.<\/strong> The Aztecs financial powerhouses thanks to their complex tax system and meticulous record-keeping. We can even see a version of this tax record through the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/bdmx.mx\/documento\/matricula-tributos\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Matr\u00edcula de Tributos<\/a>, which had pictographs indicating who paid what and to whom that the government collected during their taxation period. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Then there was the beard tax\u2026<\/strong>Yes, that's right. Apparently close-shaved faces were the height of fashion and modernization in the sixteenth century, and Peter the Great of Russia felt that his nation needed to keep up with the times and pushed for his male citizens to either chop off the fuzz or pay to keep it. In another ploy to discourage growing their beards, he would make the men who paid carry a \u2018beard token\u2019 to prove that they\u2019d earned keeping their beard. <\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/for-your-commute\/\">FOR YOUR COMMUTE<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/taxes\/\">TAXES<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"618595 advertiser\" class=\"issue-section enterprise-adv\">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                            \"\r\n            id=\"618595\">\r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"story__body\">\r\n\r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2024\/04\/16\/618595\/\">\r\n                    <div class=\"photo photo--above\">\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n\r\n                \n<article id=\"post-618595\" class=\"content-area-description single-story post-618595 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-advertiser wpautop entry\">\n\n\t\n\t<div class=\"entry-content\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mashreq.com\/en\/uae\/about-us\/our-company\/awards-accolades\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ent.news\/ads\/imgs\/219.jpg?ssl=1\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"618596\" 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=\"618596\">\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\/2024\/04\/16\/watch-vince-staples-handle-life-relationships-and-his-struggles-as-an-artist\/\">\r\n                            Watch Vince Staples handle life, relationships, and his struggles as an artist                        <\/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\/2024\/04\/16\/watch-vince-staples-handle-life-relationships-and-his-struggles-as-an-artist\/\" 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 Mohy Aboualam (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/maboualam\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a>), co-founder and CEO at <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.darwinz.ai\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Darwinz AI<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>My name is Mohy Aboualam and I\u2019m the co-founder and CEO of Darwinz AI. <\/strong>We specialize in AI services geared towards leveraging data as a primary asset for businesses \u2014 offering both ready-made tools and customized solutions, ultimately adding significant value to our clients operations. I graduated from Imperial College London with a Masters of Engineering and began my career in the UK before returning to Egypt.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>My interest in AI and entrepreneurship started with my thesis that was based on the use <\/strong><strong>of AI.<\/strong> I researched how to combine different food ingredients that would taste good together based on thousands of recipes online using an AI machine model. When I graduated, I joined private consultancy firm <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/uk.linkedin.com\/company\/mott-macdonald?trk=public_profile_experience-item_profile-section-card_subtitle-click\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Mott Macdonald<\/a>, where I did tech consulting. I enjoyed it, but unfortunately the role didn\u2019t involve enough AI and data science \u2014 it was more technology focused alongside some software development. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>This prompted me to make a switch and come back to Egypt. <\/strong>I was going to join Vodafone\u2019s AI and data science team where the vice president of Vodafone and team head of AI team <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/emad-elazhary-83a5631?miniProfileUrn=urn%3Ali%3Afs_miniProfile%3AACoAAABCiu4Bc81fp_FEgY_DdqN1BWGOwsPdiso&lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Acompanies_company_people_index%3B2e233804-2395-4899-9fd0-e73cdd8a9ed4\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Emad Al Azhary<\/a> was about to leave. Instead of joining Vodafone, Emad and I, along with our third partner, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/eg.linkedin.com\/company\/glint-venture\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Glint Ventures Studio<\/a>, decided to create Darwinz AI. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>We\u2019re an AI company and a Google Cloud Build partner as well. <\/strong>We\u2019re authenticated by Google to build data solutions and AI solutions for businesses, specifically our flagship product <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dida.darwinz.ai\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Dida<\/a> \u2014 a platform that helps retail and hospitality businesses such as beauty salons like <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/alsagheersalons\/?hl=en\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">El Sagheer<\/a>, restaurants like <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/crave_egypt\/?hl=en\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Crave<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/mori-sushi.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Mori Sushi<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tabali.bistro\/?hl=en\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Tabali<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/monginisbakery.com\/ar_eg\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Mongini's<\/a>, and hotels. These different B2C businesses want to understand their customers\u2019 journey better, increase their sales, upsell certain items, cut their expenses, or operate more efficiently.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Before Dida, businesses simply stored orders in their point-of-sale systems for financial <\/strong><strong>and tax purposes, neglecting the wealth of data it contained. <\/strong>Dida integrates with these systems, syncing transactions in real-time and leveraging AI to provide actionable insights. This includes optimizing pricing, improving customer experience, creating product combos, managing peak hours, and reducing food waste. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Our latest feature, <\/strong><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dida.darwinz.ai\/didagpt\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Dida GPT<\/a><\/strong><strong>, offers an intuitive app interface for non-tech-savvy users to <\/strong><strong>access these insights through conversational AI<\/strong> via an app on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/eg\/app\/didagpt\/id6477492861\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Apple Store<\/a> or <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=darwinz.ai.didagpt2&pcampaignid=web_share\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Play<\/a><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=darwinz.ai.didagpt2&pcampaignid=web_share\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Store<\/a>. They can ask about sales trends, product combinations, and trending ingredients globally. This breakthrough solution utilizes AI to unlock business opportunities and address operational challenges in retail and hospitality. By harnessing unstructured data, we provide clear visibility and proactive suggestions, transforming businesses from reactive to proactive.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>My advice when starting your own business is to pick the right co-founders and <\/strong><strong>teammates <\/strong>to make sure that everyone brings their own special sauce to the mix. I\u2019m very grateful for my co-founders: Emad, who brings extensive experience in AI, data science, and corporate leadership, and Glint Ventures Studio who have a background in consulting and startup building. Their combined experiences and expertise enriches our team.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>But building your own business means <\/strong><strong>bidding corporate stability goodbye.<\/strong> The 9-to-5 job is stable and freeing because after 6pm you get to take your mind off things and the weekend is yours. But with startups, it\u2019s not really like that. The satisfaction you get is from making our clients happy and actually getting real value-added from what we\u2019re doing, as well as building the team. To me, this really compensates for what we gave up.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>We have reached the hyper-growth phase in our business which needs investment. <\/strong>We are currently bootstrapped, but we feel it is high time to get investments for several reasons: We have paying clients, over 90% customer retention, which translates to our customers renewing their membership with us year on year. For funding, we are looking to partner with the right accelerators or funds that are strategic and can help us with our goals for regional expansion and building a commercial team in each of these markets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>We plan to grow in Egypt and create the right partnerships, as well as <\/strong><strong>expanding aggressively in the region. <\/strong>We\u2019re in talks with some of the biggest multinationals about partnering for our products. This comes alongside educating the market on how to use AI and how we can benefit them. Darwinz AI is also rolling out the tech to the partnering companies as we are working with them on strengthening their sales force teams. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>When it comes to local startups, I believe their biggest strength is their number: <\/strong>There are a lot of people who aspire to build their own companies and work on their own projects. All of the resources that help entrepreneurs are also becoming much more feasible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The last great thing I\u2019ve listened to was <\/strong><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.moghamra.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Moghamra<\/a><\/strong><strong>, a podcast by one of my friends that <\/strong><strong>talks to different founders and people in the entrepreneurial space.<\/strong> I found their experiences very relatable and educational. But music, and my dog Benji, are my passion (despite growing up with a phobia of dogs). When it comes to music, I listen to everything from R&B, Louis Armstrong, Led Zeppelin, Scorpions, The Weeknd, Lana Del Rey \u2014 my music taste is all over the place. <\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!--
