  4. Time to Re-Think Broadband • Internet usage evolution Platform for Mobilization & Interaction - Significant Source of Information - Heavy Use of Social Media - More Video • Growth in Broadband demand, yet.. … still a long way to go Low Penetration Rates - Large Population - Great Potential • Macroeconomic impact of BB Every 10% increase in BB penetration accelerates economic growth by 1.38% (World Bank) • International trendstowards broadband Plans – Stimulation Programs

  5. 2- Big Demand • Subscribers • 1.7 million ADSL subscriber (Oct 2011) • 2.3 M USB Modems (October 2011) • Trend • Avg. 35 K new sub/month (ADSL) • Avg. 70 K new sub/month (USB Modems)

  6. 3- Macroeconomic Impact • European Commission: • BB to create more than two million jobs in Europe by 2015 • BB to increase in GDP of at least EUR 636 billion • Booz & Company: • 10% higher broadband penetration in a specific year is correlated with 1.5% greater labor productivity growth over the following five years • McKinsey & Company: • 10% increase in broadband household penetration delivers a boost to a country’s GDP that ranges from 0.1 %to 1.4 %.” • World Bank: • USD 5 billion stimulus creates • 100,000 new jobs directly in short term • 2.5 million jobs as network effects

  11. BB and Demand Stimulation • User Demand Stimulation • Government Demand Stimulation • Industry Demand Stimulation

  12. Education Tablet PC: A learning Revolution • More than just another type of computer, tablets are something different. Their simplicity and portability are perfect for increasingly mobile learners, even in public schools. They can easily go from home, to classroom, to the public library, and then to a study group at a friend’s house. • Although affordability (for families and schools) can be an issue, tablets are relatively inexpensive and prices will certainly come down (many lease and purchase options are becoming available).

  13. Education Tablet PC: A learning Revolution • Tablet design focuses on cloud computing. This allows schools to better control the software that’s available, monitor use (as appropriate), and install protections against the less positive aspects of the Web. Combined with controls on school-based Wi-Fi networks, tablets may provide a safer computing experience than was possible with full-fledged laptops. • Tablets can take advantage of social media to make learning a collaborative experience, and specialized Web sites bring the outside world to the student, anytime and anyplace. Their rich media capabilities are a boon for learning since they add global, digital library experiences to physical library resources.

  14. Education Tablet PC: A learning Revolution • Well positioned to take advantage of the K-12 eLearning explosion, tablet design takes us beyond online courses, simulations and games with sophisticated learning objectives in mind. • But most of all – and this is key – tablets have the capability to deliver an incredibly wide range of educational apps. Textbook publishers are looking at “e” versions of their very expensive hardcover books. The best of these publishers are not just putting words and pictures online; they are taking full advantage of the interactive, multimedia formats the tablet platform provides. Slowly but surely, the pedagogy of textbooks is being restructured to meet the learning needs of the digital generation and an increasingly Web-savvy teacher corps.

  20. E- Health: The Emergency Medical Service Call Center Ambulance Project MCIT and the Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP) are cooperating to establish an emergency call center for Greater Cairo. The project aims to develop the Emergency Medical Service (EMS) system in the Greater Cairo area and improve the speed and efficiency of its services by providing the Egyptian Ambulance Services Authority with a computerized ambulance dispatch system.

  22. Integrated Health Record System National PACS Project The Integrated Health Record System project aims to build a national database of health records and a Virtual Private Network linking primary health care units all over Egypt. The data is recorded by specialists and service providers. The database is managed by an information system that administers data retrieval, health indicators and medical consultations. The project aims to develop a centralized database (PACS and RIS system) that integrates clinical images, scanned documents, and other non-textual data into patient’s electronic medical records.

  23. Women’s Health Outreach Program

  24. National Cancer Registry The program utilizes state-of-the-art data mining technologies to extract a variety of health indicators for investigating reasons behind the spread of cancer. As an initial phase, the city of Aswan was selected to be enlisted in the program. A fully equipped data collection center was prepared to be ready to receive all patients’ data to be registered using the latest data mining and recording applications. A high-end data transfer application was also developed to transfer patient’s data to the National Cancer Archive.
