Cognify

Overview

Cognify Education is a Cairo-based inclusive-education startup for children with autism and learning difficulties. Many of these children get little support in mainstream classrooms, so Cognify works with families and schools to make learning more personal. It offers tailored learning programmes, shadow teachers and support staff, nutrition programmes, teacher training and school support systems. It has also signed a partnership with Education For Employment-Egypt to train young people and persons with disabilities.

The pitch

Cognify pitched its inclusive-education model in Season 3: personalised programmes, shadow teachers and school support for children with autism and learning difficulties. Shark Mohamed Farouk questioned its focus on children aged 4 to 14. He argued that the most critical window for intervention is from birth to age 3. The record does not state the ask or the outcome.
