Social Events

Our Mission

We believe that networking and creating research and business relationships is important to create a sustainable community for improvement and innovation. While the conference offers ideas, presentations, discussions, knowledge during the day, the social talks after the conference are equally important to establish trust and partnerships. We also believe that Europe integrates many regions with different cultures and to build European trust based partnerships we need to learn about the culture of regions. So please join the networking space and social events.

2026 Social Events

Europe has many different regional cultures and customs, and still we need to work together in the EU frameworks. Already at the start of EuroSPI² in 1994 it was decided to place the conference in a different region every year and that the local host organises social events that help us to learn about the hosting culture, the traditions, history and the local food. This has a large influence on what social events EuroAsiaSPI² offers.

Europe became a business and strategic partner for countries in other continents like Egypt. This is the reason why we introduce in 2026 the African and Egyptian culture to the EuroSPI community.

This year we plan typical events that will give an insight into the culture and history of Egypt.

Conference Location: 10 km from Giza Plateau (you are close to the most ancient monuments)

Source Wikipedia: Giza is most famous as the location of the Giza Plateau, the site of some of the most impressive ancient monuments in the world, including a complex of ancient Egyptian royal mortuary and sacred structures, among which are the Great Sphinx, the Great Pyramid of Giza, and a number of other large pyramids and temples, and the Grand Egyptian Museum. Giza has always been a focal point in Egypt's history due to its location close to Memphis, the ancient Egyptian capital of the Old Kingdom.

Social Event on the First Conference Day (8th September 2026): Oriental Egyptian Cuisine

Note: The social event on 8.9.2026 will take place in Smart Village, at Giza, in a famous oriental restaurant.

Details: Smart village represents an IT and science city with leading industry, research centers and universities in the West of Cairo, and only a few km away from the most ancient monuments of Egypt. We will visit Smart Village by bus and continue to a famous restaurant to introduce the attendees to oriental Egyptian cuisine.

The food is exceptional and there will be vegan, chicken and other meat options. You will be able to choose when you register, and we will report the choices to the restaurant.

Buses will bring you from the conference location to Smart Village and the restaurant and will bring you back to the hotels, as long as you choose one of the four recommended hotels.

Taxi in Cairo - only if you do not use the already organized bus

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. The same travel agency can offer you additional travel arrangements around (before/after) the conference to e.g. visit the Grand museum, book a Nile cruise, book a tour to Alexandria and more.
