The Dot goes regional! again 🚀 Last week, Demo Day celebrated more than the end of a cohort. It celebrated what happens when talent from the regions is given the space, tools, and ecosystem to grow. Through Dot Camp+, more than 10 founders from 7 regions, Tozeur, Béja, Zaghouan, Kairouan, Jendouba, Siliana, and Gabès, transformed early-stage ideas into startups with clearer visions, stronger business models, and the confidence to own the stage. Over 4 months of intensive support, with the guidance of 8 experts and a female participation rate exceeding 70% 👏, founders challenged their ideas, refined their solutions, tested their concepts, and learned how to build with ambition and direction. The journey included: ✅ 20 workshops ✅ 70 one-on-one sessions ✅ 6 pitch sprints From HR Tech and AgriTech to tourism, mobility, impact, AI, and craftsmanship, the Demo Day stage reflected the richness, creativity, and innovation emerging from across Tunisia. At The Dot, we believe ecosystems grow stronger when opportunities reach beyond the capital, and when regional talent is empowered to be seen, heard, and supported. This stage was never the final destination @glutenia_officiel ,@diabycare , @guid.uptunisia , @triup.47 , @matchitaxi , Smart Code ( Ardhi), @halima202669 , Staffi, Kitkash, Nakhelty It’s only the beginning.⚡

You don’t build in isolation. You build through people. Lunch & Learn at The Dot creates that space where: sharing becomes natural networking becomes real and ideas start moving Because sometimes, the right conversation is more valuable than any strategy. Come hungry. Leave connected. See you at the next one. 💡🍕

Innovation doesn’t happen in silos anymore. It happens across sectors, across challenges, and across realities. That’s exactly what Dot Camp is building. 24 startups.
