says Louai Djaffer, CEO of Talenteo.
In a market where demand for digital HR solutions is growing fast, this new six-figure investment, led primarily by 216 Capital, marks a major milestone for Talenteo.
It will enable the firm to open new operations in Tunisia, the first step in a regional rollout, strengthen its technology, especially AI capabilities and scale across strategic HR markets in Francophone Africa.
The HR tech startup’s SaaS platform combines artificial intelligence, local legal frameworks, and automates key HR processes such as personnel administration, time tracking and payroll, talent development and regulatory compliance.
As it now expands to Tunisia, its intelligent engine will ensure its client’s HR operations are reliable, automates repetitive tasks, and strengthens HR departments’ ability to anticipate and adapt—especially in a fast-changing economic and regulatory environment.
“Talenteo embodies exactly the kind of innovation we back: locally rooted, scalable, and built to address the operational realities of African companies,” explains Dhekra Khelifi, Partner at 216 Capital Ventures.
216 Capital has also invested in Juridoc to accelerate the digitalization of legal services in Africa and the Middle East.
Founded in 2021, Juridoc simplifies access to legal resources through a comprehensive database that includes legislation, case law, doctrine, and legal monitoring. Its intelligent search engine, powered by generative AI, enables legal professionals, businesses, and institutions to optimize their work by quickly accessing reliable and up-to-date information.”
Already established in Tunisia and Senegal, Juridoc has achieved impressive figures: over 252,000 documents available, 325,000 successful legal searches, and more than 4,000 paid users. Building on this success, the startup aims to democratize access to legal information in new markets.
“We believe our solution addresses a critical need for legal professionals, not just in Tunisia and Senegal but across West Africa and the Middle East. We aim to expand our expertise and deliver significant value to new users.” – Kais Assali, co-founder and CEO of Juridoc.”
