Egypt's Ministry of Communications and Information Technology has launched an annual competition called 'Digitopia' to discover and support creative ideas and projects in the information technology sector, with prizes totalling EGP 10m. The competition aims to encourage innovators from primary school students up to the age of 35 to develop technological solutions to societal challenges. The first edition of the contest will run from Aug. 1 to mid-October, with registration open until Aug. 12.

It will be organised by the ministry's Information Technology Industry Development Agency (ITIDA), the Information Technology Institute (ITI), the National Telecommunication Institute (NTI), and Egypt University of Informatics (EUI). Communications Minister Amr Talaat said the initiative is part of the ministry's efforts to support digital creativity and spread a culture of innovation among students and graduates. He said it provides a platform for innovators to develop their ideas into feasible technological solutions that contribute to building a 'digital Egypt.' 'Digital creativity represents one of the main pillars of building a knowledge-based economy,' Talaat said, affirming the ministry's commitment to fostering an environment of innovation and entrepreneurship. 'The competition targets various age groups as part of a comprehensive vision aimed at discovering innovators at an early stage… to prepare a generation capable of creativity and innovation.' The competition offers a grand prize of EGP 1m and multiple other cash and in-kind prizes with a total value of EGP 10m, in addition to specialised training opportunities with local and international technology companies. Participants are divided into four main categories: primary school students (grades 4-6), preparatory and secondary school students (grades 7-12), university students, and graduates up to the age of 35. The competition will be implemented in several successive stages, starting with registration and introductory sessions, followed by idea submission, development of ideas into technological solutions, judging, and finally the announcement of the winners. The judging panel will consist of experts and specialists in the field of digital technology and innovation.

Newcastle reject Liverpool bid for Isak: Reports - World

Newcastle have rejected Liverpool's opening bid to sign unsettled Sweden striker Alexander Isak, according to reports on Friday. Isak has been training at his old club Real Sociedad this week after reportedly telling Newcastle he wants to leave St James' Park. The 25-year-old has been linked with Liverpool since the end of last season and the Premier League champions are now believed to have formalised their interest with an offer of around £110 million ($159 million) plus potential add-ons. But Newcastle, who reportedly value Isak at £150 million, remain keen to hold onto their prize asset and have rebuffed Liverpool's initial bid. Isak, who joined Newcastle in a £60 million move from Real Sociedad in 2022, scored 23 Premier League goals last season to help Newcastle qualify for the Champions League. He has three years left on his Newcastle contract, but did not travel to Asia for the Magpies' ongoing pre-season tour, with the club saying he had a minor thigh injury. On Thursday, Real Sociedad confirmed he was at their Zubieta facility with his own trainers. It was reported on Friday that Newcastle had told Isak he could agree a new deal containing a get-out clause for next year, but he responded by insisting he wants to move now. Liverpool manager Arne Slot has already bolstered his attacking options by signing Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike and Bayer Leverkusen playmaker Florian Wirtz during the current transfer window. But the Reds are keen to make their forward line even more formidable by adding Isak as they look to win back to back English titles for the first time since the 1980s. Newcastle boss Eddie Howe struck a defiant note earlier this week when he said: "He is still our player. He's contracted to us. "We, to a degree, control what is next for him. I would love to believe all possibilities are still available to us. "My wish is that he stays, but that's not in my full control." Liverpool have spent over £250 million so far in the summer window, with Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong and Giorgi Mamardashvili joining Wirtz and Ekitike at Anfield.
