3. Why Ezzai.com
» We hypothesized that most Arabs are online using English as the
main language due to the feasibility of finding what they are
looking for.
» Since, there are many Arabic Speaking Internet Users, and very few Arabic
websites that are highly frequented… We decided to provide the Arab nation with a
unique website resembling eHow that is totally in Arabic and targets Arabs.

Larger Audience Discussion
» We have attended “World Entrepreneurship Day 2012” organized by SIFE in Bibliotheca
Alexandria where we had the opportunity to discuss our idea with a larger audience.
» The second session in that event was about “Business Model”.
At first, Ms.Rasha, Project manager at TIEC (Technology Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Center) asked the audience to suggest ideas to be used as an example in the lecture.
» A lot of the audience suggested their ideas as did we!
We introduced our idea which is to have a web app where people could find how anything
in life could be done and the capability to add their knowledge also.
The most important thing that it was all in Arabic not like any counterpart they might
have seen before.
Our idea was the one voted for!
