The organiser puts practical artificial intelligence applications at the centre of the programme, including banking risk management, fraud detection and algorithmic finance. The PAFIX component is also scheduled to address financial inclusion.

Al-Ahram recalls that the exhibition began in 1996 as Cairo Telecom and gradually broadened its scope to digital services, financial technology, cloud computing and data centres. The announced schedule establishes the framework for this edition; it does not by itself demonstrate deployment of the solutions presented or their economic results.
