Join Cairo Angels and learn how to get started investing in startups

** Want to invest in startups — but don’t know where to start? Our friends at the Cairo Angels are hosting “The Angel Ticket” in collaboration with Germany’s GIZ next week. The event is specifically designed for individuals who are interesting in investing in startups, but need an orientation to the scene in Egypt. The event will include a panel on startup opportunities headlined by startup guru Con O’Donnell, Endeavor Egypt’s Mohamed Rahmy and Flat6Labs’ Dina El Shenoufy. A second panel on early-stage investing features Cairo Angels founder Hossam Allam, Delta Shield Chair Neveen El Tahri and KI Angels founder Khaled Ismail. The event runs 6:30-9pm at the Nile Kempinski Hotel on Tuesday, 27 September. The only way to attend the event is by registering through super-cool Egyptian startup Eventtus, whose founder is the only Egyptian we can think of who’s shared the stage with both US President Barack Obama and Facebook Evildoer Mark Zuckerberg. Click that last link to register for next week’s event — seating is very limited — or watch Mai Medhat with Obama, Zuckerberg and others, runtime 5:23)
