In a move set to bolster economic ties, the Tunisia Africa Business Council (TABC) has entered a strategic partnership with the Tunisian Association of Capital Investors (ATIC). The two organizations formalized their collaboration by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at enhancing cooperation and, critically, improving access to finance for businesses.
The primary objective of this alliance is to support the development and expansion of Tunisian enterprises across the African continent. According to a statement from TABC, the pact will see both entities pool their resources to strengthen their positions as key drivers of Tunisian and African economic development.
A central pillar of the agreement is to facilitate Tunisian companies’ access to the necessary funding for their expansion into sub-Saharan African markets. Furthermore, the partners have committed to a regular exchange of vital economic and sector-specific information to boost commercial exchanges.
“This agreement will also enhance communication between the members of our two institutions through joint initiatives, notably within Africa,” TABC added.
To translate their strategic vision into action, the two bodies announced plans to co-host a major event during the FITA 2026 Forum. The gathering will convene investment funds, donors, and economic actors from both Tunisia and across Africa to discuss critical topics, including private investment, inclusive growth, and financing for the expansion of Tunisian companies on the continent.
The Tunisian Association of Capital Investors (ATIC), founded in 2004, is the leading industry body representing the majority of private equity and venture capital investment structures operating in Tunisia. Its membership includes venture capital companies, venture capital funds, and private equity investment firms.
