We are at the start of making a significant and lasting impact on the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Tunisia.
Endeavor Tunisia launched in April 2017 to promote regional growth and development driven by high-impact entrepreneurship. The launch of the office was made possible by a partnership with Banque Internationale Arabe de Tunisie, a leading supporter of entrepreneurship in the region.
Entrepreneurship is on the rise in Tunisia. With a high unemployment rate among university graduates, young Tunisians are launching high-impact companies, creating jobs and strengthening the entrepreneurial ecosystem. A 2016 analysis from TechCrunch suggests that thousands of new companies have been formed over the last five years, aided by the rise of accelerators and investment in entrepreneurship. Many of these companies led by talented founders are well-poised to scale.
Endeavor Tunisia will focus on selecting and supporting high-impact entrepreneurs and businesses from multiple sectors that have the potential to grow to an international level and reinvest back into the country by mentoring and providing financial support for successive generations of entrepreneurs. The new office will be Endeavor’s third expansion into Northern Africa, joining Endeavor Morocco and Endeavor Egypt in supporting the larger region’s entrepreneurs.
