About Medenine

Medenine had its moment on the big Hollywood screen when part of the city was used as a location for the 1999 film, "Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace".
A major town in southeastern Tunisia, Medenine sits 77km south of the port of Gabes and Djerba Island on the main route to Libya. With a population of 71,695 residents you will have plenty of people to ask directions from if you get lost on your way to a coworking space or merely to chat to whilst wallowing in a hammam.

The capital of the Medenine Governorate, it was a trading hub during the pre-colonial era where merchants from all over North Africa and even from Bornu would hang out exchanging goodies. It was here that the central granaries (mud cells named "ghurfas) for numerous nomadic Berber tribes of the region were located. Today these structures resemble a honeycomb of souvenir and carpet shops. Historically one of the many stop-off points on the North African caravan route, it's a friendly and lively town with plenty of local sights to explore. Medenine is actually a great base to explore the small hill villages in the area.

Tunisia is the first country where startups have successfully lobbied policymakers to change the laws that affect them. Tunisia's Startup Act is taking the country's thriving entrepreneurship ecosystem forward in leaps and bounds. Local entrepreneurs changed laws that stifled competitiveness such as currency controls, customs fees, lack of financial support and the unclear legal framework under which they struggled. Coworking in Medenine is where these intrepid local souls hang out in collaborative bliss with a newfound sense of support by its government.
