Paris, September 24, 2026 Orisha, a European vertical software publisher, announces the opening of a new Tech Center in Tunis. This expansion is designed to strengthen the group's development capabilities, accelerate product evolution, and support the integration of artificial intelligence into its solutions.

Designed as a direct extension of Orisha's Product & Tech teams, the Tech Center will work in close collaboration with the group's various business units. Its employees will focus on key areas such as software engineering, architectural modernization, product development, and accelerating AI integration.

The choice of Tunisia is based on the quality of its pool of tech talent, the strength of its engineering education, and its geographical and time-zone proximity to Orisha's main European markets. Around twenty employees are already working on-site on R&D activities. The group plans to actively continue its recruitment efforts to reach 70 tech professionals in Tunis by the end of 2026 and up to 300 by 2028.

"This expansion aligns with our ambition to sustainably strengthen our innovation capacity by relying on tech teams that are fully integrated into the group. Tunisia offers a top-tier talent pool and an ecosystem particularly conducive to developing technology products on a European scale. This Tech Center will directly contribute to accelerating our roadmaps and the deployment of artificial intelligence within our solutions.", says Alexandre Fretti, CEO of Orisha.
