Leading the Future of AI in the Mediterranean: Insights from the Forum Méditerranéen de l’IA

The Mediterranean region is no longer a passive observer in the global technology race. It is increasingly becoming an active architect of its own digital future. This shift was clearly reflected in Tunis, during the Forum Méditerranéen de l’IA (FMIA), a landmark gathering focused on shaping the future of artificial intelligence in the region.

Bryan Youssef, CEO of EduBolt, participated in this high-level forum alongside policymakers, entrepreneurs, and AI experts, ensuring that the realities and challenges of Mediterranean countries are meaningfully represented in the global AI conversation.

From Discussion to Action: Building a Regional AI Roadmap

As one of the 11 designated SAE experts within the forum’s committee, EduBolt contributed to a collaborative effort bringing together leaders from Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt, Algeria, and Lebanon. The objective was clear: move beyond theoretical debates and design a practical AI roadmap that directly supports entrepreneurs, startups, and innovation ecosystems.

This roadmap focuses on more than regulation. It lays the groundwork for:

  • Ethical and responsible AI frameworks

  • Access to infrastructure and tools

  • Support mechanisms for early-stage startups

  • Scalable pathways for regional talent to compete globally

By prioritizing execution, the forum marked a decisive transition from vision to implementation.

Lebanese Leadership on the Regional AI Stage

One of the most powerful moments of the forum was witnessing the strong representation of the Lebanese innovation ecosystem at a regional level. Bryan Youssef shared this responsibility with Fady Abboud, DDS of iolokis and fellow SmartESA alumnus.

Having two Lebanese alumni among the 35 selected regional experts is a testament to the growing impact of Lebanon’s entrepreneurial and academic communities. It reinforces the idea that Lebanese innovators are not merely participating in the AI transformation, they are actively shaping it.

A Defining Moment for AI in the Mediterranean

The Forum Méditerranéen de l’IA represents a turning point for artificial intelligence in the region. It signaled a collective commitment to cooperation, cross-border alliances, and long-term strategic planning.

At EduBolt, we believe the Mediterranean has a unique perspective to contribute to the global AI landscape, one grounded in diversity, resilience, and human-centered innovation. By aligning regional stakeholders and defining a shared roadmap, the forum has laid the foundation for the next generation of AI solutions to emerge from within the region itself.

This marks the beginning of a bold new chapter for the Mediterranean tech ecosystem, and the work has only just begun.
