After working in the industrial sector, El Bechir Mohamed Ahmed has turned his attention to modernizing business events in Algeria.

As co-founder and chief executive officer of ScanEvent, Mohamed Ahmed has positioned the company to modernize the management of professional gatherings. The startup launched its digital platform in 2025 to centralize the organization and monitoring of trade fairs, exhibitions and conferences while replacing manual processes with a more integrated system.

ScanEvent targets all participants across the event value chain, including organizers, businesses, exhibitors and visitors. The platform seeks to convert often complex events into interactive and measurable experiences through several integrated features.

The company places particular emphasis on registration management. Organizers can register participants before or during events and generate digital badges linked to identification codes that allow rapid visitor verification. The platform also centralizes information related to participants, exhibitors and event activities through a single dashboard.

ScanEvent also provides tools for exhibitors and participating companies. Users can collect business contacts, track interactions during trade fairs and access performance data designed to measure the impact of their participation.

In addition, the platform integrates communication features. Organizers can send messages, notifications and updates directly to participants and exhibitors to maintain engagement before, during and after events.

Before entering the event technology sector, El Bechir Mohamed Ahmed built his first business experience in industry by co-founding CMPE Groupe in 2020. The startup specializes in industrial production.

Mohamed Ahmed graduated from the Houari Boumediene University of Science and Technology with a master’s degree in mechanical engineering in 2019. He also earned a master’s degree in entrepreneurship, technology and innovation in 2023 from FUTURIS Institute.
