Shaghalni
Egypt
Omar Khalifa graduated from the American University in Cairo with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science / International Relations. After his graduation, Omar followed his dream to launch his own media company in which he called Omedia in 2009. Specialized in publishing services, Omedia had a very successful publishing portfolio that generated $150,000 in sales revenue in its first year. Following the January 2011 revolution, he faced a turning point in his company and was in debt for 3 consecutive years from 2011-2014. Egypt struggled with its stalling economy and Omedia lost its entire publishing portfolio. In an effort to get the company back up to pursue his dream, Omar rebuilt Omedia from scratch with an aim to diversify the company’s revenues; he expanded the company’s activities by managing the outdoor advertising sales of Tarek Nour Communications, and focused on thermal paper advertising to be the first company to use banks’ queuing tickets for advertising purposes - Omedia signed an exclusive agreement with the Commercial International Bank to use its tickets for advertising purposes. Late 2015, Omar launched Shaghalni, which was an idea he had back then while he was still studying. Inspired by the employment fairs that granted the best jobs to graduates at different universities, he wanted to create an online platform that serves all Egyptians, and the name was Shaghalni. Once the website was in beta version with only 500 users, he had a 5-minute meeting to pitch to Egyptian billionaire Eng. Naguib Sawiris the idea, which resulted in his decision to invest in the company to fight unemployment. Since Shaghalni’s launch in 2016, it has approximately 5000 registered companies and a database of over 1.7 million jobseekers. After several years of trial and error with the digital model, Omar decided to go brick and mortar with Shaghalni by building the first hiring center in Egypt, and he chose Sohag as a starting point to combat one of the highest unemployment rates in Egypt, where jobseekers get interviewed instantly and gain access to training programs and financial solutions. After the initial success of the first hiring center, Omar had the opportunity to pitch the idea in Shark Tank and managed to land investment from all five sharks, which led to establishing a central hiring center serving Greater Cairo. To date, Shaghalni contributed in employing approximately 10,000 jobseekers in decent jobs across Egypt. Omar is also a professional angler with 12 IGFA World Records and represented Egypt in several Big Game World Championships.

Dr. Andrey Kostyuk
General Partner, CEO
AAlchemy Ventures
With 30+ years of experience in fintech, AIF management, entrepreneurship, angel investing, and mentoring, I established AAlchemy Ventures, a business angel network - member of EBAN, EIC Service Provider, facilitator of Growth Lab soft-landing scaleup program and AngelPath business angels' school. I lead Founder Institute Cyprus Core Accelerator which helps startups launch and scale in Europe and North America, as well as Cyprus chapters of VNTR and Expert Dojo.
I embarked on my business and academic journeys back in 1990, as I balanced university studies with entrepreneurial ventures. After graduating as MSc in Accounting and Audit in 1996, in 1998 I pursued Ph.D. in Taxation and Fiscal Policies and defended my thesis in 2001. In the same 1998 I co-founded a "neobank". This journey spanned two attempts and 15 years, culminating in the successful exit in 2013.
In 2014, with more flexibility in my schedule, I joined Global Executive MBA (GEMBA 7) program, facilitated by Georgetown University and ESADE Business School, where I was introduced to angel investing – a moment that sparked a lasting passion. Since then, I have been investing in startups directly and in syndicates.
My ongoing work with startup founders naturally led to the next chapter of my academic journey. In November of 2021, I enrolled in Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) program at Grenoble School of Management, and successfully defended my thesis on the impact of mentoring startup founders on their ventures' progress in April of 2025. In parallel, I started teaching entrepreneurship at bachelor and master levels at Harbour.Space (2020-2022), Grenoble School of Management (2025-2026), Universitat Pompeu Fabra (2026), and ESADE Business School (2026). In 2026 I was recognised as AdvanceHE Fellow.
I am IMA-endorsed consultant and speaker and EMCC- and AC-credentialed mentor and coach, Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) certified professional, and holder of multiple diplomas and certifications in negotiations, service design, and appraising. I have been serving as an expert for Research Executive Agency of the European Commission (2017-2022), as a mentor for EIC Women Leadership Program, Cassini, EU-LAC, and as a member of Endowment Board of Big Change, a charitable foundation supporting underprivileged youth (2008-2025).
