The cooperation agreement was officially signed by Prof. Dr. Mohamed El-Shinawi, GU President, and Mr. Ahmed El-Sheikh, Chairman of the Egyptian Exchange, in the presence of distinguished university officials and department heads. The cooperation took place on the university campus, where attendees also had the opportunity to tour the state-of-the-art educational facilities including the latest skill labs, simulation models, and medical clinics.
