Swiver, a Tunisian cloud accounting service provider, raised about TND500,000 from Compagnie d’Assurance et de Réassurance Tuniso-Européenne (Carte).
These funds will help the company extend its services to other countries in Africa. “These funds will strengthen our business capabilities. We will offer new online services, like monthly tax returns, to our clients. Our company is planning to conquer new markets outside Tunisia”, Azzam Soualmia (photo), the man who founded Swiver in 2016, said.
In 2017, Tunisian startups raised $10.5 million. The most important funds were allocated to companies operating in big data, agriculture and creative industry sectors.
