Three Tunisian Start-ups Successfully Complete the Endeavor Scale-up Program

Within the framework of the U.S. funded Promise Tunisia project, Endeavor’s Scale-up program was launched on March 19 to support emerging Tunisian entrepreneurs. The program offered a combination of group and individual sessions to help entrepreneurs clarify their vision and strategy and strengthen their fundraising capabilities. During the five-month program, the entrepreneurs benefited from 46 hours of one-on-one mentoring and 60 hours of coaching focused on fundraising. The three founders who went through the end of the program are Ameni Mansouri (Dabchy), Anis Kallel (Kaoun), and Malik Nouira (Prefabulous). The three entrepreneurs will also get the opportunity to observe an Endeavor international selection panel for additional international exposure.
