Financing Innovation: The Strategic Role of CDEs in the Entrepreneurial Ecosystem

During Global Entrepreneurship Week 2025, the CDE of INSFP Oued Aissi participated in the “ConnectinTizi” event, organized by Cowork.art. Represented by Mr. OUDIAI, Head of the CDE, and Mr. Si Youcef, NESDA trainer, the center contributed to a panel dedicated to project financing mechanisms and the strategic contribution of CDEs at local, national, and international levels. The discussion was expertly moderated by Ms. Louiza Izerkhef.

The event offered a diverse and enriching program, including a second panel led by tech entrepreneur Mr. Salem Hamdi, and insightful interventions from seasoned entrepreneurs such as Mr. Massinissa-Zine Toumi and Mr. Lyes Mouder. Participants also benefited from practical workshops facilitated by Mr. Boudarene Ghiles and Mr. Amine Rouchiche, focusing on entrepreneurship support and digital consulting.

The exchanges underscored an encouraging trend: an increasing number of young individuals view entrepreneurship as a viable pathway to a more sustainable and prosperous future. Special thanks were extended to Mr. Salem Hamdi and Prof. Sediki (Director of the CDE at UMMTO) for their support and contribution to the success of this initiative.

This activity reflects the shared commitment to fostering a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem and supporting the next generation of innovators and project leaders.
