Celsys' Bold Venture into Egypt

Celsys, a leader in digital content tools, has embarked on an exciting initiative in Egypt by collaborating with J-MANGA CREATE and its subsidiary J-MANGA CREATE EGYPT Inc. The project aims to nurture a new wave of digital creators among Egyptian students, with a focus on manga and animation production.

Overview of the Project

The partnership is centered around a digital creator training project that seeks to expand across Egypt by 2026, with future goals of reaching the wider MENA (Middle East and North Africa) region. The initiative is designed not just as a training program, but as a cultural bridge that promotes understanding and exchange through the expressive arts of animation and manga. Students will have the opportunity to engage with Japanese content culture while cultivating their own cultural identities and values through creative expression.

Supporting Education with CLIP STUDIO PAINT

One of the cornerstones of this initiative is providing access to Celsys' renowned application, CLIP STUDIO PAINT. This powerful tool caters to illustrators, manga artists, and animators, thereby enriching the educational resources available at local institutions. Through collaboration with educational entities and cultural organizations, JMC and JMC EGYPT are committed to developing comprehensive curricula, training instructors, and organizing workshops aimed at building a sustainable education model rooted in the region.

Celsys aims to raise awareness of CLIP STUDIO PAINT within the MENA region while simultaneously fostering a new creative culture originating from Egypt. This project embodies the potential for digital arts to transcend geographical and linguistic boundaries, facilitating robust international communication based on creativity.

The MENA Market Potential

The MENA region presents immense potential for growth, home to approximately 490 million people, half of whom are young. The media and entertainment industry is projected to reach a value of around $47 billion by 2026, with an annual growth rate estimated at approximately 7.4%. Additionally, local interest in Japanese manga and animation is soaring, indicating a strong demand for digital content.
