Aliyah Alghubayn, Tawooni Co-Founder

Saudi ed-tech startup Taawoni has just completed a successful funding round, landing a tidy $1.6 million to fuel its ambitions. The investment was spearheaded by M Capital, accompanied by several other investors keen on backing the promising platform.

If you're not familiar with Taawoni, they're all about bridging the gap between universities and both private and public institutions. Founded in 2021 by Aliyah Alghubayn, the company specializes in automating cooperative training programs—a real game-changer for students eager to gain real-world skills and for organizations seeking to onboard fresh talent without the usual bureaucratic hurdles. By streamlining the entire training process, Taawoni helps foster stronger, smarter connections between education and industry, making workforce readiness more efficient than ever.

With artificial intelligence at their fingertips, Taawoni offers a professional-development hub accessible across various sectors. By simplifying continuous learning, the company helps organisations strengthen their teams by equipping staff with up-to-date practical knowledge.

Numbers published on the company's website are nothing to scoff at either: Taawoni has already assisted 34,000 individuals through partnerships with over 800 businesses, alongside collaborating with 14 academic institutions across the kingdom.

This latest bout of investment will be dedicated to speeding up growth and expanding their reach. Given the pace of digital transformation in Saudi Arabia lately, that's hardly surprsing. Arageek readers will notice just how hungry the Kingdom’s education-tech scene has grown, matching the appetite for innovation we've been seeing throughout the region. It's fair to say eyes will be firmly fixed on Taawoni's next steps as it pushes ahead.
