    About the Next Society

    THE NEXT SOCIETY is an open community of changemakers, entrepreneurs, investors, corporates, NGOs, public and private innovation, research, and economic development hubs from Europe and 7 Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestine, and Tunisia.

    THE NEXT SOCIETY aims at mobilizing, promoting, and reinforcing innovation ecosystems and economic development in the MENA region. THE NEXT SOCIETY action plan (2017-2022) is co-funded by the EU up to 90% for a global amount of EUR 7.7 million budget.

    THE NEXT SOCIETY believes in Reverse Innovation, the capacity of innovators from emerging countries to come up with solutions to contemporary challenges that can inspire the rest of the world, by supporting South Mediterranean innovators who develop local solutions with a global reach or which allow skipping a generation in terms of use or technology. Berytech has been the Lebanese partner for THE NEXT SOCIETY project successfully implementing the program’s activities in Lebanon since 2017 to empower the innovation ecosystem.
