Egypt's media industry has been significantly influenced by regulatory developments over the past year, with key trends focussed on increasing regulation and restrictions on digital media. The government has continued its efforts to regulate online platforms and  influencers, ensuring they comply with the same standards as traditional outlets.


In 2024, this trend became more pronounced, as the Supreme Council for Media Regulation further tightened its control over online content, expanding its jurisdiction to cover websites and blogs with substantial traffic. The regulator announced that all platforms and websites operating without a license will be blocked within three months. According to the President of the Media Council, the move is intended to legalise the status of platforms, protecting viewers and organising e-commerce operations within the country.


The rate of digital growth in Egypt has accelerated over the past year, and includes substantial shift towards digital advertising.  Egyptian media outlets have rapidly expanded their operations to reach younger audiences, while the streaming market has intensified with regional platforms such Shahid VIP and Watch iT competing against global services such as Netflix and Disney+.


In other developments, despite economic challenges, Egypt's entertainment sector remains robust, with Egypt producing three-quarters of the Arab world's screen output as of 2024.
