Enactus TBS wins national Advanced Stage title for the fourth consecutive year and heads to São Paulo
Students from Tunis Business School have claimed Tunisia's top social entrepreneurship prize for a fourth straight year, beating Enactus IHEC Carthage at the 17th National Exposition and earning a place at the Enactus World Cup in Brazil — where they arrive as reigning world champions.
The Enactus team from Tunis Business School (TBS) claimed the national Advanced Stage Challenge title for the fourth year running on Wednesday 2 July, beating Enactus IHEC Carthage into second place at the 17th Enactus Tunisia National Exposition.
The two-day event was held on 1 and 2 July at the Radisson Blu Convention Center in Tunis, bringing together hundreds of students, academics, business leaders and institutional partners to judge projects assessed on their economic, social and environmental impact.
In the Early Stage Challenge category, Enactus Sup'Com took the national title.
Both winning teams earn the right to represent Tunisia at the Enactus World Cup 2026 in São Paulo, Brazil — a competition that gathers national champions from across the global Enactus network.
Reigning world champions return to the global stage
TBS arrives in Brazil as Tunisia's most decorated student social entrepreneurship team. In October 2024, the squad won the Enactus World Cup in Astana, Kazakhstan, defeating challengers from 29 countries with their social enterprise BOVITA, a project centred on natural, plant-based treatments for bovine mastitis.
The 2026 national victory is the team's fourth consecutive Advanced Stage national championship — a sequence that began in 2023 — and confirms TBS as the dominant force in Tunisian student social entrepreneurship.
A high-profile edition
The 17th exposition was organised with the support of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung, Tunisie Telecom and Groupe Poulina.
Ian Aitken, Chairman of Enactus Global and Enactus Canada, attended the event, reflecting the growing prominence of the Tunisian chapter within the worldwide network. The closing ceremony was also attended by the ambassadors of Argentina and Canada to Tunisia.
The programme included a panel discussion on artificial intelligence in business, an alumni showcase featuring Enactus graduates who have gone on to found companies, and a Speed Hiring Pitch designed to connect students with recruiters from partner firms.
Enactus Tunisia is a social entrepreneurship organisation that mobilises students, university faculty and business leaders to develop projects aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, evaluated annually before a jury of company executives and sector experts.
