Shell Egypt will participate as a partner in the Egypt Energy Show (EGYPES) 2025, the largest energy conference and exhibition across Egypt, North Africa, and the Mediterranean. The conference, held under the auspices of President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi and Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Karim Badawi, will take place from February 17-19. Shell's global leadership, including Ivan Tan, Executive Vice President for Development, Subsurface and Wells, and Suzanne Coogan, Vice President of Heartland Exploration and Namibia, will attend. They will emphasise the company's commitment to upstream growth, capacity building, and diversity and inclusion (D&I). Shell will have a presence at panel discussions and host an interactive booth for its entrepreneurship programme, Intilaaqah. The company aims to highlight its role in advancing Egypt's energy landscape and fostering industry collaboration. "Shell remains committed to supporting Egypt's aspirations in the energy sector," said Dalia Elgabry, Vice President and Country Chair, Shell Egypt. "EGYPES 2025 provides a critical platform to engage in discussions on the future of energy, reinforce our investment plans, and continue fostering strategic partnerships that accelerate progress. Through our participation in high-impact panels, the recognition of talent through the EGYPES Awards, and our engagement with youth through our NXplorers and Intilaaqah social investment programmes, we aim to demonstrate our holistic approach to creating long-term value for Egypt's energy industry." Shell executives will participate in key discussions at the EGYPES 2025 Strategic Conference. Tan will explore how gas can support energy-hungry nations and industries. Coogan will highlight the potential of Africa's natural gas in driving energy security and export markets. Omneya Abdellatif, Managing Counsel for LNG and Head of Legal at Shell Egypt, will contribute to a discussion about LNG market dynamics in the region.

Shell will also celebrate young innovators through the NXplorers Awards Ceremony, showcasing student-led solutions addressing energy sustainability challenges. Shell will host an interactive Intilaaqah booth throughout EGYPES 2025. The programme has nurtured thousands of youths and contributed to the establishment and scaling of approximately 200 start-ups over the past two decades.
