As the Middle East and North Africa region needs to adapt to complex environmental issues, as well as rapidly deteriorating socio-economic forecasts, young and pioneering entrepreneurs can take the lead to transition into a greener, ecological and sustainable future.

The From Innovation to Creation programme strengthens innovation through supporting cluster cooperation and start-up ecosystems in the Southern Neighbourhood countries.

Through a four-year programme funded by the European Union, SPARK is strengthening innovation and startup ecosystems, together with two of its strategic partners, IACE (based in Tunisia) and Ruwwad (based in Jordan), and its local implementation partners in Palestine (Flow Accelerator, Intersect, PICTI, Station J, Technopark, UCASTI), Jordan (TTI, Cewas), Lebanon (AOU, AUB, Berytech, Injaz, Bloom, LLWB, The Nawaya Network, Flourish-Cewas) and Tunisia (Smart Capital, Hive12, Taysir Microfinance, Flat6labs, The Dot).
