Founded in 2019, Beesiha is an online medical appointment platform designed to improve healthcare access and simplify the patient experience in Tunisia. The service, available for free via a mobile app and website, helps patients find doctors and schedule consultations seamlessly. For physicians, Beesiha offers a synchronized online agenda, streamlining appointment management and reducing wait times.

"Beesiha addresses a challenge we all face—finding a doctor, locating their office, traveling for an appointment, returning for the consultation, and sometimes waiting for hours. These constraints can be solved through better organization. Our app is designed to simplify healthcare access," explained Hambli Charef, the startup’s public relations officer from 2020 to 2021.

Beyond healthcare, Babou expanded into sports marketing by co-founding DKS in 2022, an agency specializing in branding and communication for elite athletes.

A graduate of ESSEC Business School in France, where he studied entrepreneurship, finance, and economics, Babou began his career in 2014 as an analyst and surveyor at Junior ESSEC Conseil, a European junior enterprise. In 2015, he worked as a sales associate at Mercer Maurice Energy Solutions Limited in the UK. Between 2017 and 2019, he was a project management consultant at Atos Consulting, specializing in digital transformation.
