Abstract

Developing countries are increasingly adopting in-house tablet manufacturing as a result of the cost-effectiveness and significance of tablets. This paper provides a comparative insight into the tablet manufacturing industry, focusing on Egypt and India. The pursuit of tablet manufacturing and integration within educational institutions in both countries stands as ambitious endeavors. Commonalities emerge in population size and economic challenges. Although the initiatives in Egypt and India commenced simultaneously, the Indian initiative has achieved more substantial progress. The research examines the tablet computer industry in Egypt along three technological axes: domestic manufacturing, joint production, and contracting with international manufacturing firms. The industry challenges faced by Egypt are analyzed and provide suggestions for the development of this critical sector, with a specific focus on the education industry
