Valu

Valu, fintech giant, patterned with RoboGarden Egypt, AI-powered EdTech platform, to provide flexible payment plans for the “Learn to Earn” initiative. 

Walid Hassouna, CEO of Valu, said, “ As we expand beyond the traditional buy-now-pay-later model, initiatives like ‘Learn to Earn’ allow us to channel our financial tools toward meaningful, long-term impact”

The initiative aims to empower youth across Egypt, especially women and people with disabilities. This is through providing specialized digital training programs designed to equip them with the skills needed for the evolving job market. Additionally, it aims to promote equal opportunity in education by offering a hybrid learning model. Moreover, this combined with Valu’s flexible payment solution aims to ensure that high quality digital training is accessible and affordable for all.

Engy El Sabban, CEO and Co-founder of RoboGarden Egypt, said, “Through this initiative, we aim to extend RoboGarden’s reach to the underserved youth, women, and people with disabilities — empowering them with remote work opportunities and flexible career paths.”

Learn to Earn

The program will feature a comprehensive, engaging learning experience including self aced content, live online session and in-person workshops. Under this partnership, five training cohorts will be held with 25 participants in each reaching a total of 125. 

Its participants will receive a certificate upon completing 75% of the content with their progress tracked through analytics, attendance and assessments. Moreover, pathways like web development open opportunities for employment or freelance work in Egypt’s digital economy. 
Statistics show that around 60% of Egyptian university graduates struggle to secure employment immediately after graduation. This is due to the gap between educational outcomes and market needs. Moreover, the co-founder of RoboGarden emphasized the importance of vocational and skills-based training to enhance labor market competitiveness in Egypt. This is especially important amid global economic shifts and the increasing reliance on technology.
