EuroSPI 2026 Location in the Campus

Nile University campus is located at the heart of the 6th of October City. The campus is designed in such a way to provide the most appropriate scientific environment that supports a research university, including complete academic, research, and service facilities for students, researchers, and faculty, as well as innovative technology start-ups.

The conference rooms will be in the innovation building (where European companies have established joint education and where in the basement new startups are supported)

EuroSPI 2026 Travel Guide for Social Events

1.) Social Event on 8.9.2026 - Beduin Dinner

 

Note 1: This is only a preliminary information, the event details might still change.

 

Buses will take you from the conference location first to the close smart city (technology area with state offices, leading European and US companies) and from there to the Beduin dinner restaurant.

In case you travel yourself it is recommended to pre-book a taxi with a recommended travel agency. In Egypt for business visits it is usual that you book a service by a travel agency with taxis during the whole stay.

Note 2: Do not use public transport, since this is a completely different challenge compared to Europe. 

Note 3: Only use trusted travel agencies and taxi services. Under travel we provide you with contact details for the preferred travel agency.

 

2.) Social Event on 9.9.2026 - Evening at the Pyramids

 

Note 1: This is only a preliminary information, the event details might still change.

 

Buses will take you from the conference location to the pyramids which are only 25 minutes drive away. Planned is either (1) a light show and after that to got to a dinner, or (2) a dinner with view to the pyramids and classical music by Austrian musicians. 

 

Karol Danis and Anton Bashynskyi  are exceptional musicians who play classical music at EuroSPI social events since 2021 and have both won a number of international prizes. See the profile of Karol Danis and of Anton Bashynskyi
