Egypt Information Technology Report Q4 2015 - New Study Released

A more stable domestic political and economic environment, combined with a supportive policy environment, has helped the Egyptian IT market to return to a robust growth trajectory after disruption due to political crisis in recent years. However , short - term downside risk is still elevated due to Egypt's fragile politi cal and economic environment , and our forecast for Egyptian pound depreciation against the US dollar in 2015 . Additionally , the potential reduction of financial support to Egypt from Gulf states could weigh on growth over the short term. However, over the medium term growth will be driven by trends such as the develop ment of Egypt as a hub between the Middle East and Africa , the growth of the outsourcing industry and cloud computing adoption . Our generally positive outlook is also underpinned by a low penetration of PCs and IT services , which BMI expects vendors to capitalise on as private consumption growth gradually gains momentum over the five years to 2019 .

Software Sales: EGP2.51bn in 2014 to EGP3.02bn in 2015, up 20.4% in local currency terms. Enterprise software spending growth expected to accelerate as a wider range of Software-as-a-Service options become available in Egypt, with SMEs representing a relatively untapped opportunity.
