👏 That’s a wrap from Cairo! We had a fantastic day yesterday delivering our Big Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence for Impact training, in partnership with UNDP Egypt and as part of the Future of Digital Countries Summit. The session brought together policymakers from across the MENA and SEA region for hands-on learning and great conversations about how mobile big data and AI can be used to tackle real-world challenges—from disaster response to climate-driven migration. Big thanks to everyone who took part for your energy and insights—and to our expert trainer Jo Gilbert, whose knowledge and facilitation made the day both informative and inspiring.
