#ConsciousTech Vested Summit Brings Jason Silva to Sahl Hasheesh

Vested Summit is a technology and innovation summit that gathers start-ups and industry giants with a focus on solving real-world issues. It will be hosted at Sahl Hasheesh, the hidden gem of the Red Sea, from November 9th to November 11th. The summit will also bring Emmy-nominated host of National Geographic's Brain Games, Jason Silva, to Egypt for the first time as its main guest speaker and the ambassador of #ConsciousTech.

"Join me in Sahl Hasheesh, Egypt this November for the Vested Summit, which is a ConsciousTech summit," Jason Silva said on Instagram. "It's all about bringing conscious technologies, emerging technologies, to emerging markets." Many start-ups will arrive at the summit to show the world these emerging technologies, such as VRapeutic's use of virtual reality for therapeutic purposes, and ColiFly's medical drones that have helped deliver blood to far-off villages in rural Tanzania.

Three tracks will be covered at the summit: Investment, Technology and SuperPowers. The Investment track will feature the top 30 #ConsciousTech start-ups in the Middle East and Africa that use advanced technologies like AI and Virtual Reality to solve real-world issues.

The Technology track will go for three days, offering workshops, talks and panel discussions. The track will finish off with a technology expo showing off the latest technology that can be used to tackle pressing global issues. Finally, the SuperPowers track will showcase the heart of the summit, that is to say, the "conscious" in #ConsciousTech. Discussions and healing sessions will be held to help elevate the founders' sense of awareness, consciousness and how they can continue to confront the problems that face our world.

“Vested is not just any other conference. It's the world's first ConsciousTech summit that is built with the aim of putting emerging market talents on the global innovation map and changing the world for the better by bringing humanity to technology to solve present and future real-world problems,” said Founder of Vested Summit, Salma El Hariry. "We are here to shed light on the world's mindful risk-taking entrepreneurs exploring frontier technologies to make a real impact on humanity."

Vested Summit is powered by SkaleUp Ventures, and its being in Egypt is made possible with the support of Microsoft, CIB, Next Big Innovation Labs, Egypt Innovate, Afrolynk, Until, The Greatness Studio, Womena, Wuzzuf, Mindfulness India Summit and Virtual Work Insider.
