ICT sector

A constantly growing sector.

The ICT sector in Tunisia is a promising one, able to face international competition and benefit from greater openness to the foreign market. The sector has an export potential confirmed by its know-how and a low cost advantage in the international market. With competitive salaries, an undeniable quality of human resources, a technological infrastructure meeting international standards and generally a favourable legislation, Tunisia can be an ideal platform to access neighbouring markets such as those of Algeria or Libya, as well as other African or Middle Eastern markets.
