Following this, Dr. Amr El Banhawy discussed the latest and upcoming technologies in the Egyptian market, emphasizing the importance of sustainable cooling in the region. Dr. Sara Adam, talked about the economic advantages of using sustainable cooling technologies.

The attendees actively participated in the discussion and raised concerns about the challenges of securing funding for sustainable cooling. It was suggested that financial institutions should become more familiar with these technologies. Technical assessments would be necessary to ensure the safety and viability of investment. A recommendation was made for Cool Up to offer technical support in this regard.
