History






= Founding

In 2014, Actis entered into an agreement with Université Centrale Group, a post-secondary education group in Tunisia, to build a higher-education platform. Slah Ben Turkia became the first CEO of the platform. By 2016, the group expanded into Morocco by incorporating Université Mundiapolis. In 2017, the group made its first foray into anglophone Africa, partnering with both Management College of Southern Africa (MANCOSA) and Regent Business School. In that same year, Honoris United Universities was established and began recruitment of management staff with Luis Lopez appointed as CEO.
In May 2018, Honoris partnered with the European Business School (ESCP Europe) for the purpose of sharing knowledge and resources as well as providing scholarships and financial aid to students admitted by the latter institution. In 2019, Honoris launched MANCOSA School of Education and in 2021, partnered with Le Wagon to open coding bootcamps across the continent as part of its expansion into Africa.
In 2021, the network announced work on a potential entry in Egypt.
