Saudi-based edtech startup Taawouni has successfully closed a $1.6 million funding round, led by M Capital and joined by a group of individual investors and backers with a focus on the education and technology sectors in the region.
Funding Details
The newly secured capital will enable Taawouni to accelerate its growth plans and expand its footprint across Saudi Arabia and regional markets.
The funds will also support the enhancement of its tech platform and the improvement of user experience for both students and partner institutions.
Taawouni specializes in automating cooperative training programs by connecting Saudi universities with both public and private sector organizations.
The company also offers an integrated, AI-powered platform for professional development that aims to empower local talent and simplify access to continuous learning and upskilling opportunities.
