Three months of workshops, mentoring, feedback sessions, bootcamps, and pitch practice all led to this moment.

The ETENA Accelerator Demo Day brought together 8 tourism founders from Egypt, Tunisia, and Morocco as they took the stage to pitch their ideas to a room full of jury members, industry experts, and ecosystem players shaping the future of tourism in the region.

The day began with a warm virtual opening speech by Dimitra Papandreou from TUI Care Foundation, welcoming the founders as they prepared to pitch their businesses.

Each founder then delivered a 5-minute pitch, followed by a 5-minute Q&A session with the jury: Ahmed Yehia Ismail, Founder & CEO of Eco Nubia; Ahmed Bastawy, Managing Director at icealex; and Ahmed Khalil, Senior Associate at Den VC.

A proud and exciting milestone for our participants, and only the beginning of what we know they will continue building for the future of rural and sustainable tourism in the region.
