Startups, companies, banks, insurers, universities and incubators: 103 exhibitors presented their products, services and innovations. Find them in the exhibitor directory.

Three days, three Tech² summits

New in 2026, each day was built around a thematic summit: Tech²Health on 5 February, Tech²Education on 6 February and Tech²Agriculture on 7 February.

42 speakers, 26 sessions, 350 seats

Talks, panels, masterclasses and workshops followed one another in a 350-seat hall, with speakers from Algeria, Tunisia and the United Kingdom. Two competitions punctuated the edition: Pitch & Link, where startups pitch to a jury of investors and experts, and the Human vs AI Content Battle.

A ministerial visit, three years running

Mr Noureddine Ouadah, Minister of Knowledge Economy, Startups and Micro-enterprises, visited the fair once again, describing it as an annual meeting point for Algeria's entrepreneurial ecosystem.
