Innovation is everywhere.

Anything you can imagine is possible. See how the guy below adapted his car and converted it into his very own Jeep!


Basket pulley systems

In Egypt, most people live in apartment buildings. Often, without elevators. To avoid going up and down the stairs, many of the apartments on the upper floors have devised fabulous pulley systems to bring things up and down from below.

TEDxCairo

TED is now in Egypt. The stirrings of a new life and a renaissance of ideas in the middle east were already afoot well ahead of the Arab Spring. TEDxCairo was launched last year by a group of students from Ain Shams University. This year, TEDxAlexandria is going to also be launched. Check out the website here for info and the talks:
