About me
Margreet Magdy is a cross-sector strategist who builds ecosystems that work, not just for startups, but for communities, institutions, and the people too often left out of the conversation. With over 15 years of experience across the MENA and Euro-Med regions, she works at the intersection of entrepreneurship, inclusive innovation, gender equity, and digital transformation. Her approach blends business strategy, policy insight, and system design to help organizations and ecosystems become more connected, impactful, and future-ready. She’s worked with founders, government partners, development agencies, accelerators, and corporate players to co-create structures that support real, lasting change; whether that’s helping women access better economic opportunities, or helping young entrepreneurs turn local ideas into scalable impact. Margreet is the Founder of You Are س, a holistic initiative driving women’s professional and economic empowerment, and a Founding Board Member of the Youth Entrepreneurs Network, where she helps shape youth-focused policy and innovation spaces. She is especially known for building frameworks that are both visionary and actionable, turning big-picture thinking into grounded, real-world outcomes. Whether she’s advising a platform on equity strategy, curating a digital learning experience, or designing a national program, Margreet brings clarity, systems thinking, and purpose to every table she joins.
