Glovo Tunisia Launches PowerUp Tunisia 2026 Program for Local Startups

Glovo Tunisia has officially launched the PowerUp Tunisia 2026 program, a initiative designed to support Tunisian startups that have already launched a product or are in the advanced validation phase. The goal is to provide these young companies with international visibility to promote their products and activities.

Eligibility and Application Process

The program is selective, and only projects that are beyond the idea stage can apply. The targeted sectors are diverse and include:

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Fintech
  • Foodtech
  • Logistics
  • E-commerce
  • Urban mobility
  • SaaS
  • Impact solutions

Applications are open until July 19th, and the selected startups will have the opportunity to pitch in front of a jury on July 30th at the Glovo Tunisia offices. The winning startup will represent the country at the Glovo Startup Campus 2026, which will take place from October 6th to 8th at the company's global headquarters in Yellow Park, Barcelona.

What Glovo Offers

The reward is not limited to a simple plane ticket. The entire trip, including visa, transportation, and accommodation, will be covered by Glovo. Additionally, the selected startup will benefit from:

  • Mentorship sessions with Glovo experts and leaders
  • Immersion in the Barcelona tech ecosystem
  • Networking meetings with investors
  • Strategic feedback sessions with venture capital professionals

The objective is to give a significant boost to a young company looking to expand beyond the Tunisian market.

Glovo's Position

According to Aziz Ben Taieb, Head of Q-Commerce and Global Affairs at Glovo Tunisia, the idea behind this initiative comes from the difficulty entrepreneurs face in transforming a young project into a successful company. PowerUp Tunisia 2026 aims to allow local startups to learn from international experts and expand their network beyond borders.

PowerUp is Glovo's international program dedicated to developing startup ecosystems, already deployed in several markets in Europe, Africa, and Central Asia. Applications can be submitted online through a form available on the Glovo Tunisia website.
