Modern trends of Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) From Synthesis to Applications
Water, energy, environment, global warming, digitalization, medicine, and many more themes are at the forefront of societal needs, in decisive aspects relying on porous materials innovations and technology. Metal-organic frameworks (MOF), porous coordination polymers, and other porous materials offer tremendous potential for many of these applications. So, the modular design of MOFs and other porous materials has inspired scientists from a wide range of disciplines as well as industrial companies to invent novel functions. The one-day workshop is targeted to be a platform for scientists, developers and users to connect.
Through the workshop, you will have knowledge about the novel generation of porous framework materials, discover new functions, and meet experts from all disciplines related to MOFs and their applications. Exchange expert information on application requirements, material processing, and end-user applications.

Logic At Home: How to Make your Own Logic Games and Build-up Your Mind
Logical thinking is a set of skills that is essentially developed by ‘practicing’. As any other skills, it is very much true that the more you practice, the more your skills get developed. The main objective of this webinar is to train the participants, in an interactive environment, how to develop their logical thinking skills through plying ‘logic games’ at home. The participants are to be prepared first by practicing some mind ‘warming-up’ exercises. Then, the basic forms of logical thinking (i.e., non-verbal, deductive, and critical thinking) are introduced. Then, the participants will learn how to make some logical games (e.g., Ostomachion, crazy robe), by their own, so they can easily and enjoyably build-up their minds.

Heritage Entrepreneurship
The cultural heritage can’t be ignored when we talk about the socio-economic development, where the cultural heritage is considered the most important human production and experience. When we talk about Arabic heritage, specially the Egyptian heritage which is rich and diverse, one can say that it is mobilized at a time of radical, political, and economic changes in the region and worldwide. It is indeed a means of enhancing prosperity and a foundation for effective and productive dialogue among nations. During our study period, we try to solve the problem of cultural heritage management in the Arab World by trying to be clear about the actions needed to valorise and mobilize heritage. The main objective of this seminar is to try to spell out strategies and mechanisms that aim to protect, preserve, conserve, and mobilize heritage for development within a view of reaching not only short economic gains, but also sustainable development.
The webinar aims to shed light on possible development and investment opportunities in the field of the Egyptian cultural heritage and hospitality.

Blue light in optoelectronics
The bold and the beautiful
Light-mater interaction in the nanoscale regime leads to new phenomenon in science which can be utilized to develop what so called optoelectronic devices. These devices rely on the electronic properties of matter to convert electric energy into light or vice versa. In this webinar, fundamentals of such opto-electronic devices and their state-of the art will be presented for non-specialized audience. An emphasis will be given on novel Blue and White Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs), which are included in most of devices surrounding us, and their good and bad influence on human life
What is the role of innovation in
COVID-19 response ?
Necessity is the mother of invention, indeed, the governments, corporate and individual response to COVID-19 is producing inspiring innovative solutions proving the known wisdom. Crises generate a lot of energy that, if harnessed constructively, can be a great source of innovation. Certainly, what has emerged already in several places in the world and during previous crises provide lessons for our near-term response, but also highlight the underlying and more critical long-term need to better resource and institutionalize strategic innovation in global health.
