The CMA CGM Foundation supports dedicated students eager to study maritime and logistics and pursue their career in these two forward-thinking sectors.
The CMA CGM Foundation will support six students to study Maritime Transport and four students to study Logistics at the AASTMT for the upcoming four academic years (2025/2026 – 2028/2029).
Since its establishment in 1972, and for over 50 years, AASTMT has provided high-quality training to youth in three fields of specialization - Marine Navigation, Marine Engineering and Radio Officers and Marine Technicians - before expanding to more fields of education in Logistics, Business, etc., catering to local needs.
A long-standing partnership with AASTMT
In 2007, the CMA CGM Group launched the first batch of scholarship with AASTMT. Today, the CMA CGM Foundation, under the leadership of Mrs. Tanya Saade Zeenny, President of CMA CGM Foundation, re-affirms its commitment to education for all in Egypt.
Through its partnership with AASTMT, the CMA CGM Foundation also commits to facilitating access to internship and career opportunities within the CMA CGM Group and CEVA Logistics for scholarship recipients. This commitment aims to enhance their employability by providing them with privileged access to a dynamic and international professional environment.
Mandy Bassil, Director of the CMA CGM Foundation in Lebanon and the Levant Region, declared: “The CMA CGM Foundation, presided by Tanya Saadé Zeenny, is committed to expanding access to quality education and helping young Egyptian talents to develop the skills they need to succeed. Through this partnership, we continue to strengthen our engagement in Egypt by creating new opportunities for students to learn and grow”.
Professor Dr. Ismail Abdelghaffar Ismail Farag, President of AASTMT, expressed his gratitude to CMA CGM Foundation, saying: “We deeply appreciate the continued trust and support of the CMA CGM Foundation in partnering with AASTMT to empower Egyptian youth. This collaboration not only provides students with access to world-class education but also bridges the gap between academia and industry. At AASTMT, we are committed to preparing future leaders who will drive innovation and sustainability in the maritime and logistics sectors."
