OpenCraft sponsored the first official meeting of the Egypt Business Network in Egypt, the event took place at the Swiss Club in Cairo on March 5th 2008.
Egypt Business Network is a leading Egyptian group on XING.com, the group facilitates business networking in Egypt and allows professionals to develop new business relationships and generate new business opportunities.
About 50 guests attended the event, attendees were comprised of professionals from different backgrounds including, telecommunications and IT, banking and finance, trade missions, furniture, airline services, NGOs, marketing, training and education consultancy.
OpenCraft's stanch commitment to supporting professional activities of value, and its Silver Partnership with SugarCRM prompted the company to sponsor this event, wherein they agreed to provide interested attendees with a free trial to web-based SugarCRM.
This also highlights OpenCraft's dedication in supporting businesses with industry-proven software solutions to help them increase productivity and improve customer satisfaction.
One of the things that makes the meeting unique is that attendees had the ability to know who's attending and what each attendee is looking for or what they have to offer before the event.
This is facilitated by the fact that each attendee has an online public profile available through XING.com that reveals each member's requests, possessions and interests.
Egypt Business Network facilitates business matchmaking in Egypt and opens new business opportunities to everyone in a professional context and OpenCraft has made clear their support of this innovative business networking project by sponsoring their first official event in Egypt.
