The EMGF EmpowerMed Women Network, in partnership with Egypt’s Women in Energy Network, hosted a landmark event titled “AI Unlocked: Powering Your Career and Life with Intelligent Tools” at the Petrojet Premises in New Cairo. The exclusive, women-only workshop was a resounding success, bringing together a dynamic group of professionals from across the energy sector for a deep dive into the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence.

The event was led by Eng. Ahmed Salama, Executive Director at Microsoft, who captivated the audience with an insightful and interactive session on the practical applications of AI in professional and personal settings. From workflow optimization to smart decision-making tools, attendees gained a first-hand look at how AI can empower women to lead more efficiently and innovatively in a rapidly evolving industry.

Over the course of four hours, participants engaged in real-time demonstrations, collaborative discussions, and practical exercises tailored to a wide range of roles across technical, operational, and strategic domains. The workshop fostered a space for open dialogue, hands-on learning, and enthusiastic exchange of ideas.

A Few Highlights:

• High engagement throughout the session, with many participants sharing personal use cases and asking forward-thinking questions.
