Youth engagement in business landscapes is increasingly recognised as crucial for economic development across Africa. Egypt's vibrant economy offers a unique case study due to its diverse urban centers and socio-economic dynamics. The study employed structured questionnaires distributed among young entrepreneurs across Egypt's major cities. Quantitative data analysis was conducted using statistical software to interpret responses. Youth entrepreneurs reported a significant challenge in securing adequate funding, with over 70% indicating financial constraints as the primary obstacle to their business growth. The findings highlight the need for tailored support programmes and increased access to finance for young business owners in Egypt's urban areas. Policy makers should focus on developing targeted initiatives that address funding gaps, while educational institutions can enhance entrepreneurship training curricula to better equip youth with necessary skills.
