IGEC GLOBAL ROADSHOW BRIEF IGEC proudly invites you to the IGEC GLOBAL ROADSHOW starting 15 th October 2016. The success of our past events and the high demand from our partners gave us confidence to broaden our spectrum of participation. The outcome is a global roadshow with an expected participation for both our partners and non- partners institutions across all our destinations Australia, the UK, USA, Canada, New Zealand, Turkey, Spain, Malaysia and France and we are certain to see them with us. Why Attend IGEC Road Show? 1. The Market: Based on the statistics, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region has a population of nearly 400 million people; the MENA region will have the highest youth population with both cohorts aging 0-14 years and 15-24 years reaching 45 percent and 21 percent, respectively. This bulk of population will generate demands for higher education as these regions place more emphasis on developing their human capital than developed economies. However, the number and growth rate of higher education institutions in these regions will not be sufficient to cater to the mentioned high demand. The big youth population in MENA would have to look for higher education abroad as an alternative means. 2. IGEC Experience: We have taken many steps with careful planning to engage in more collaboration between Englishspeaking countries and the Middle East considering the vast opportunity provided by the high youth population which will serve as future student generation. With such strong and supportive demography we have a full confidence in effectively bridging the gap between the two worlds and create a perfect equilibrium between them.

IGEC has efficiently managed to drive its student enrollment figures to four-digit numbers and with every passing year its market share is increasing. IGEC comes with a vast experience in organizing successful Road Shows. We started with few institutes and today our events have set a benchmark in the local market and a trademark amongst our Partners. 3. The Network: Our branches in 15 cities have grown and spread well over every year. We have spread from Middle East to North Africa. This would conveniently expose you to many markets from under just one IGEC umbrella. 4. The event will also arrange visits to local education providers. Meetings with scholarship sponsors and delegates from higher education sector. 5. The event dates are slated in a way that it coincides with re-opening of schools in the region so there will be a maximum participation from the students.
