From April 18–20, 2025, Tunisian professionals across the U.S. will converge at Callaway Gardens, near Atlanta, for the annual World Alliance of Tunisian Talent (WATT) Leadership Retreat– a premier event fostering collaboration within the Diaspora.
This high-impact weekend will bring together established leaders, visionary entrepreneurs, ambitious students, and engaged community members for rare opportunities in dialogue, mentorship, and collective action.
“This retreat is more than a meeting—it’s a springboard for action,” emphasized Mahmoud Hachicha, co-founder of TAYP (Tunisian American Young Professionals) and 2025 retreat co-chair.
Dr. Zied Mhirsi, President of TAYP, added: “Our strength lies in uniting to share knowledge and build a brighter future for Tunisia—wherever we are in the world. Together, we’re forging a community of action-driven leaders united by collective ambition.”
What’s New in 2025 is the Tunisian-American Innovation Expo: A dedicated showcase for diaspora entrepreneurs and creators to present cutting-edge projects.
With 20% of students attending from top U.S. universities, the retreat will also provide a valuable space for mentoring and intergenerational transfer.
With preparations in full swing, the retreat is poised to be a defining moment for Tunisia’s diaspora in 2025.
For those ready to join a movement, build lasting connections, and amplify their impact, Atlanta will be where it all begins.
