Fellow Joins Blackbox Elevate Experience in Brussels
Fellow Ichraf Jarray (Tunisia, 2022), founder of Hive 12 incubator, recently participated in the Blackbox Elevate program in Brussels, Belgium. Held this September, the event convened 20 MENA region directors and more than 15 speakers for a series of discussions centered around collaboration, innovation, and ecosystem growth.
Established in Palo Alto, California in 2011, Blackbox is a platform dedicated to empowering entrepreneurs globally. The Blackbox Elevate initiative, funded by the European Commission with collaboration from nongovernmental organization SPARK, is an exclusive, invitation-only program for leaders of startup organizations. This year’s program welcomed participants from accelerators, incubators, co-working spaces, and universities in Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine and Tunisia, providing access to expert knowledge and insight from seasoned entrepreneurs and industry specialists.
“The energy and relationships formed during these four days will have a long-lasting effect on our work moving forward,” Ichraf reflected.
