Egypt and North Africa: registration and ticketing for Cairo, Sharm and beyond
18 August 2026 ยท 7 min read
North Africa carries a heavyweight congress calendar. Egypt hosts continental and global convenings at the Egypt International Exhibition Centre, the New Administrative Capital's conference complex and the Sharm El Sheikh International Congress Centre. Morocco draws finance, agriculture and investment events to Marrakech, Casablanca and Rabat, Tunisia and Algeria host regional technical meetings, and Libya is rebuilding its trade event calendar.
Language is the first conversion problem
A delegate reading Arabic or French should not have to translate a registration form in their head. Every public page on Karibu by Cara carries a language button with a long list of languages, including Arabic and French, so the registration journey works for the audience the congress is actually inviting.
Payments that suit the market
Card payment dominates in Egypt and the Maghreb, while visiting delegations from sub Saharan markets often prefer mobile money. Supporting both in one checkout, with a clear per channel record, avoids the awkward parallel bank transfer spreadsheet.
Congress scale programmes
Medical and scientific congresses in Cairo and Sharm run dozens of parallel sessions across several days.
- Multi track agendas with clickable sessions and speaker profiles.
- Breakout sign up with capacity limits and attendance scanning.
- Daily check in and daily catering scanning per day of the congress.
- Certificates of attendance backed by real scan data.
Scheduled meetings for trade delegations
North African trade events increasingly host buyer and supplier delegations from across the continent. The matchmaking system schedules those introductions and reports which countries and sectors actually met, which is exactly what the sponsoring chamber or ministry needs afterwards.
Karibu by Cara runs the registration desk, the ticketing checkout and the B2B matchmaking system from a single event record, so organisers work in one place and delegates only ever see one link.
Frequently asked questions
