Meanwhile, the construction of the first phase of Memphis University, which includes the faculties of Medicine, Engineering, and Business & Economics, is steadily advancing towards the University’s planned opening in September 2025. Taaleem holds a 32% stake in Memphis University with full management control and has a call option to increase its stake to 51% one year after operations commence. Strategically situated on an 80,000-square-meter site on Road 90 in the Fifth Settlement of East Cairo, the University will be developed in two phases and is projected to accommodate a total of 7,800 students. Under Taaleem’s management, Memphis University aims to offer a unique value proposition, balancing high-quality education, exceptional student experience, and competitive pricing to improve access to quality education.

 

Mohamed El Rashidi, Taaleem Management Services’ Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, commented: 

“I am delighted to announce that we have received the presidential decree for Memphis University, marking a significant milestone in Taaleem’s ongoing growth. The construction of the university’s first phase is progressing as planned, and it is on track to welcome its inaugural cohort of students in September 2025. The Taaleem group now proudly encompasses three fully licensed universities: Nahda University in Beni Suef, a leading private university in Upper Egypt; Badya University in Badya City in West Cairo, set to launch in September 2024; and Memphis University in the Fifth Settlement of East Cairo, set to launch in September 2025.
