This event targets Tunisian companies and start-ups operating in digital activities, cybersecurity, digital transformation, GovTech, Fintech, e-commerce, e-health, and EdTech.

Senegal is undergoing a significant digital transformation, as outlined in its "New Deal Technologique 2025-2034" roadmap. The country aims to digitally transform its public services to strengthen its digital sovereignty and develop its start-up ecosystem. With over 11.5 million internet users and a penetration rate of nearly 61%, Senegal offers a promising market for digital services.
The country's 4G coverage is approximately 85%, and it has a mature fintech sector and a rapidly growing entrepreneurial ecosystem. Tunisian companies interested in participating in the Tunisia-Senegal Digital Meetings must register by September 30, 2026. The CEPEX initiative seeks to promote Tunisian digital expertise and facilitate partnerships with Senegalese businesses.
The event is expected to foster collaboration and business opportunities between Tunisian and Senegalese companies in the digital sector. By participating in the meetings, Tunisian companies can expand their presence in the Senegalese market and capitalize on the country's growing demand for digital services.
The digital economy is a key area of cooperation between Tunisia and Senegal, with both countries seeking to leverage their strengths to drive growth and innovation. The Tunisia-Senegal Digital Meetings will provide a platform for companies to explore new opportunities and establish partnerships that can drive economic development in both countries.
The CEPEX's efforts to promote Tunisian digital companies and facilitate their international expansion are crucial in driving the country's economic growth.
