US-Egypt Business Council recommends ‘4 Big Ideas’ on bilateral economic ties

The US-Egypt Business Council has put forward four objectives and recommendations to the administration of President Joe Biden to consider in a paper recently released. 

The paper said, “As we turn the page and start writing a new chapter in our shared story with Egypt, the US-Egypt Business Council, in cooperation with our partners at the American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham) Egypt, stands ready to work with the Biden Administration and the Government of Egypt on a range of issues and opportunities to deepen and expand bilateral economic ties.” 

It added, “We believe our respective governments should embrace an agenda for a stronger, more dynamic US-Egypt economic partnership with the objectives of helping Egypt achieve an economic renaissance that creates needed new private sector jobs and inclusive growth across society while also generating American exports and jobs in the US.” 

The paper outlined the four ideas on: growing bilateral energy and environmental partnerships; building a long-term US-Egypt health relationship; bolstering the growing US-Egypt digital economic relationship; and expanding education opportunities for Egyptians.
