We are proud to announce that the zkBDI protocol, developed by BTB LABS, has officially received the Startup Act label issued by Startup Tunisia — a key milestone recognizing our company’s potential for innovation, growth, and global impact.
This label marks our transition from "pre-label" status to full recognition under the Startup Act, which supports and promotes Tunisian startups through a forward-looking legal and financial ecosystem.
A transparent and smooth process
What made this milestone particularly remarkable was the efficiency and simplicity of the entire process. From the initial pre-label application to the final approval, every step was conducted entirely online, with clear communication and fast processing times. The transition from pre-label to label was completed in less than two days.
We would like to thank the Startup Tunisia team for their trust and for designing a smooth, founder-centered experience — a true example of how administrative innovation can energize the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
What is the next step?
As we continue to develop zkBDI, our mission remains clear:
- 🔐 Enable secure and automated B2B data exchange through zero-knowledge proofs and blockchain technology
- 🌐 Promote a digital trust infrastructure for businesses worldwide
- 🤖 Rethink how businesses interact — machine to machine, with privacy and compliance built in from the start
This recognition strengthens our determination to bring Tunisia’s innovation to the world.
We look forward to attending the official Startup Act label award ceremony, and we are already working hard to live up to the trust placed in us.
Let’s keep building!
