What We Do
It is with tremendous pride that I introduce the Tunisian Talents United (TTU) Association. The founding members of TTU, created the association in 2016, with the aim to identify, attract, develop and mentor /coach Tunisia’s greatest young talents and potential future leaders. We are bringing together local and international Tunisian professionals and leaders from across the globe and from different sectors. With the aim to share their experience, know-how and guidance across a series of forums, workshops and engagement platforms, which will inspire and steer the next generation of future leaders.
We are united by our unwavering core values of integrity, excellence, civility and work values; and driven by our ambitious vision: “Tunisian Talents are globally competitive, highly demanded and capable of transforming the country and connecting it to this century”.
We are focusing on what we can impact most: learning, skills, employability and networking. Our ultimate goal is to inspire and affect change that will contribute to a brighter future of our great country, Tunisia.
Our clear mission is Enabling and connecting Tunisian talents and leaders to the future, transforming the building blocks of the country through human capital, impacting positively people’s lives.

In addition to organizing several social gatherings in Tunisia and overseas to strengthen the bounding of TTU members. Our intention is to continue building-up effectively this through a structured platform, with a solid and sustainable foundation of talented and successful visionary leaders that will transform Tunisia’s major challenges into great opportunities.
