Book excerpt: The proposals and initiatives are of considerable value, particularly given that Egypt's industries have had to face headwinds over the past few years, both globally and domestically. In the short term, a range of industries, from building materials to fertilizers, are facing challenges. Nevertheless, the government is working on several measures to stimulate the sector and place it at the center of the country's economic recovery. The following issues are discussed: 1) In Chapter 1, we present an overview of the industry in Egypt today, its importance, progress, and potential, and preview the e-book's six subsequent chapters. 2) In Chapter 2, we discuss the upside potential of selected high, intermediate, and low-technology industries, 3) In Chapter 3, we feature the important iron and steel industry, selected to represent the heavy industries. 4) In Chapter 4, we explore five more of Egypt's thriving and still promising heavy industries, plus the especially high-potential, high-technology, sand-fed industries. 5) In Chapter 5, we explore how to overhaul Greater Cairo's problematic and polluting heavy industries. 6) In Chapter 6, we address industry in Middle and Upper Egypt south of Cairo, plus the Red Sea coastline (with maps included). 7) Finally, in Chapter 7, we explore policy reforms that can support sustainable, efficient, and strong, long-term industry growth.
