Cairo remains among world’s top 100 innovation clusters in 2026 index

Cairo has retained its place among the world’s top 100 innovation clusters, according to the reported results of the 2026 Global Innovation Index.

The index is issued by the World Intellectual Property Organization, known as WIPO.

The results indicate Cairo’s continued presence on the global list, although the available summary does not specify its exact position or any change from the previous ranking.

The top-100 designation cited in the summary applies to Cairo as an innovation cluster. It does not establish a separate ranking for Cairo University, despite the university being named in the announcement’s headline.
