The Award Winners Volunteer to Work with Zero-net:
The Zero-netters made new friends with the other winners that many of them are now volunteering to help Zero-net, including the first winner in Creativity & Culture! |
 |
Zero-net volunteers to create the first e-Content Forum in Egypt, as a first step to The e-Content Academy of Egypt:
This gift to the IT community came as a practical translation of Zero-net slogan: “Don’t Hate, Educate!” to prove that competing for the Award doesn’t prevent cooperation to elevate the standards of the whole industry. |
All the nominees at the Award were invited to participate in the online forum to facilitate their communication, collaboration, and enhancing the quality of e-Content in Egypt and the Region.
Mr. Ahmed Yehia, CIO of ITIDA kindly provided the contact list of the nominees and finalists, and also joined the online forum to offer help and support to the members to build together a great dream: The e-Content Academy of Egypt! |

Zero-net is happy and proud to be in the middle of all this buzzing action, and invites everyone to submit ideas, suggestions, and contacts to further this great development.
See you in another challenge with more Success on Zero-Budget…and while you wait…Don’t Hate, Educate!
