The DFI, which was formerly known as CDC Group, also reaffirmed its\u00a0 commitment to strengthen its partnership with Egypt and increase climate finance to\u00a0 support the country\u2019s green growth.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reception which took place at the British Embassy in Garden City, Cairo, was hosted&nbsp; by the Deputy British Ambassador, Qudsi Rasheed and BII CEO Nick O&#8217;Donohoe and&nbsp; attended by investment partners and key leaders in business across the country.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>British Ambassador to Egypt, Gareth Bayley, <\/strong>said<strong>: <\/strong>&#8220;<em>We have a new name for an&nbsp; established partner &#8211; British International Investment\u2019s presence and impact in Egypt has&nbsp; never been more apparent. Egypt is one of BII\u2019s priority markets, given the growth potential&nbsp; this country has to offer. BII\u2019s investment deals, whether in financial services, health or clean&nbsp; energy, illustrate the strength of the UK-Egypt trade and green partnership. I wish the UK\u2019s&nbsp; development finance institution every success, as it supports Egypt\u2019s green transformation&nbsp; ahead of COP27 in November<\/em>.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of BII\u2019s ambition to bolster Egyptian VC, the DFI announced new commitments to&nbsp; Algebra Ventures and Endure Capital, two leading local VC firms that support and partner&nbsp; with the most promising early-stage businesses to build transformative companies&nbsp; across sectors such as fintech, agritech, edtech, logistics and healthcare. The capital will&nbsp; support Algebra Ventures\u2019 second fund following the success of Fund I, which included&nbsp; market-leading companies such as Khazna, Mozare3 and Shift EV. BII also anchors Endure Capital\u2019s most recent fund Endure21, which has backed high-impact companies&nbsp; such as Brimore, Pylon and Cassbana.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The DFI has also invested in MaxAB, a prominent B2B e-commerce platform in North&nbsp; Africa. The funding will support the creation of 4,000 jobs and facilitate MaxAB\u2019s&nbsp; expansion across Egypt and Morocco, enabling the company to reach an additional&nbsp; 73,000 micro-retailers across the region.

The summit, which will bring together&nbsp; local VC managers from across Africa and Asia, aims to help foster new relationships and&nbsp; greater collaboration across markets; explore important themes such as climate tech and&nbsp; food security; facilitate knowledge sharing across BII\u2019s portfolio; and share best practice&nbsp; on ESG and impact measurement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During his keynote speech, Nick O&#8217;Donohoe reflected on BII&#8217;s 20-year track record of&nbsp; successfully investing in Egypt such as financing the country\u2019s first management buy-out with El-Rashidi El-Mizan. He also highlighted the DFI\u2019s investment in Benban Solar Park, the largest Solar Park in Africa, which is helping to contribute clean cost-effective power to meet Egypt\u2019s growing energy demand and reduce carbon emissions and is playing a&nbsp; role in helping the country meet its climate goals.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commenting on BII\u2019s latest commitments in Egypt\u2019s thriving start-up ecosystem, <strong>Nick&nbsp; O&#8217;Donohoe <\/strong>said: <em>\u201cThese investments form a critical part of BII&#8217;s new five-year strategy and&nbsp; reflect our local priorities to continuously explore opportunities to back local venture&nbsp; capital fund managers and direct our capital toward stimulating entrepreneurship and&nbsp; innovation among native businesses in impactful sectors. We believe local investors are ideal&nbsp; partners to identify the next generation of high-potential entrepreneurs whose unique&nbsp; solutions help solve development challenges, including climate solutions. I am particularly&nbsp; excited to welcome many of our VC partners at tomorrow\u2019s Innovation for Impact summit.&nbsp; This is an event that further demonstrates BII\u2019s commitment to help foster partnerships within the VC ecosystem and across markets, and help mobilise more capital to back market shaping companies that are making societies more productive, sustainable and inclusive.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the UK\u2019s main vehicle for climate finance investments and the largest bilateral DFI in&nbsp; Africa, BII is committed to broadening its partnership with the Egyptian Government to&nbsp; develop a blueprint addressing Climate Adaptation and Renewable Energy (CARE) for&nbsp; powering energy-intensive water infrastructure.
