Egypt has achieved a major milestone in digital inclusion, advancing 40 points in the United Nations Index for “Individuals using the Internet” over the past decade. The remarkable progress reflects the country’s sustained investment in digital infrastructure and efforts to expand access to telecommunications services nationwide.
According to the latest figures from the Cabinet, Egypt’s telecom sector now serves 90.64 million mobile internet subscribers and 12.18 million fixed broadband users as of July 2025. This surge underscores the success of national initiatives aimed at enhancing connectivity, improving service quality, and integrating digital technologies into daily life.
The government’s commitment to advancing ICT infrastructure—through projects in fiber deployment, network upgrades, and digital transformation programs—has positioned Egypt as a regional leader in digital accessibility. These achievements align with Egypt’s Vision 2030 strategy, which prioritizes technological empowerment, economic diversification, and inclusive digital growth.
