MENA-can is a social entrepreneurship incubator and ecosystem builder working across fragile and underserved communities in the Middle East and North Africa. We help social entrepreneurs, support organisations and local communities turn pressing challenges into sustainable solutions.
Through practical training, mentoring, advisory support and ecosystem development, we have trained more than 200 social entrepreneurs and engaged over 500 changemakers and ecosystem actors, including more than 20 entrepreneurship support organisations across Yemen, Tunisia, Syria and Mauritania.
We believe talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. Our role is to help locally rooted ideas grow into resilient enterprises and stronger ecosystems—while using innovation, digitalisation and responsible AI to increase their impact.
