A co-working space to develop the Tunisian entrepreneurial ecosystem

Who better than entrepreneurs to solve Tunisia’s most pressing social, economic and environmental challenges and contribute to the development of a post-revolution vibrant (green) economy embodying both wealth and wellbeing?

This is exactly what Rym Baouendi, Zied Mhirsi, and Houssem Aoudi — the three cofounders of Tunisia’s first co-working space — had in mind when they established Cogite.

Co-working spaces have mushroomed across the Arab world providing fertile grounds for entrepreneurship and innovation through collaboration and community.

Cogite is on a mission to fuel a movement of impact-driven entrepreneurship in Tunisia — channeling it towards sustainable development by building skills, fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing, and enabling social innovation.

“The sustainable development landscape is gradually building here and there are several promising initiatives, however they remain disconnected and disjointed—this is one of the main reasons we wanted to establish Cogite,” explains Rym Baouendi.
