Tunisia Program Overview

In partnership with the U.S. Department of State’s Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI) and U.S. Embassy Tunis, FSVC will initiate in October 2011 a two-year technical assistance program to promote private-sector development in Tunisia.  The program focuses on working with banks to increase lending to small businesses, developing the venture capital sector, and improving the legal and regulatory environment for financing entrepreneurs.
