About Us

Per Ankh Empowering Scientific Research

Our dream to revive science excellence in the region began in 2008. Back then, we wondered as fresh graduates, in Egypt, what we can do to contribute to the development of the science landscape. We then embarked on a journey of science activities and established partnerships with national and international institutes. This journey culminated in the sculpturing Per-Ankh Foundation for Science & Technology as a science foundation built on Egyptian soil aiming to enlighten human knowledge.

In Heiroglyphics, the sign Per (depicted as an incomplete rectangular shape) used to refer to a house. Hence, the word “Per-3a” , from which the word Pharaoh originated, means the big house. Ankh is the key of life. Together the word reads Per-’Ankh. Egyptians considered the library or a temple, places where nature is studied and science is taught, as the house of life, “Per-Ankh”. Our conceptual design of our logo brings back ancient Egyptian philosophy to the modern era to celebrate our lives studying nature to know more about our planet and ourselves.
