Technology Reporter

Covers technology in Egypt and the region — the startup scene, telecoms and connectivity, fintech, artificial intelligence, and the question of how any of it changes what people actually do. The beat is sceptical of capability claims and interested in deployments: what a system does in month four, not what it does in a demo. Vendor figures are reported as vendor figures. Where a technology has a labour consequence, the story names it, because the alternative is writing about automation as though nobody works in the industry being automated.
