I’m Mohamed El-Mansy, a Project Consultant, and Digital Transformation Leader with over 14 years of international experience delivering large-scale funded development programs and advanced AI-driven solutions across Egypt, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Oman.

My expertise spans private sector development, SME competitiveness, and investment facilitation, with a proven record in EU, USAID, GIZ, KfW, and VNG projects supporting Non-Revenue Water Management, economic growth, infrastructure, and sustainability. I am adept at policy dialogue with governments, financial institutions, and private sector stakeholders, aligning development priorities with actionable strategies.

As a Senior Data Scientist & AI Consultant, I specialize in Python, cloud analytics, GenAI, and explainable AI (XAI). I design and deploy LLM-powered tools, scalable AI products, intelligent dashboards, and self-serve BI platforms using Python, SQL, Power BI, and NLP—helping organizations streamline KPIs, automate compliance, and reduce inefficiencies.

My portfolio includes leadership in MLOps, model governance, and ethical AI, delivery of over 1,700 hours of technical training, and facilitation of stakeholder engagement in data-driven legal, tax, and compliance transformation projects.

Currently pursuing an Executive Master of Business Administration (Cardiff Institute, UK), I bridge policy, finance, and technology to foster public-private partnerships and drive sustainable, innovation-led growth under the EU Global Gateway framework.
