Zewail City of Science and Technology is a not-for-profit, independent institution of learning, research and innovation. The concept of the City was proposed in 1999 and its cornerstone laid on January 1, 2000. After many delays in its establishment, the January 25, 2011 Revolution brought a revival to the project with an Egyptian Cabinet of Ministers’ decree on May 11, 2011. The project was labeled by the Cabinet a National Project of Scientific Renaissance and named the Zewail City of Science and Technology.
