    The Ministry of Digital Transformation of Morocco has officially launched a call for expressions of interest to select venture-building operators for startups, marking a significant step in the country’s ambitious “Digital Morocco 2030” strategy. The ceremony, held at the Ministry’s headquarters in Rabat, was presided over by the Minister of Digital Transformation, alongside key figures such as Khalid Safir, Director General of Caisse de Dépôt et de Gestion (CDG), and Hicham Zanati Serghini, Director General of the National Company for Business Guarantee and Financing.

    The initiative is aimed at attracting both national and international players in the venture-building ecosystem, including incubators and accelerators, to support Moroccan startups through a range of services. These include financial backing and tailored business development programs designed to foster entrepreneurship, increase access to global markets, and boost the visibility of Moroccan startups on the international stage.

    This strategic move aligns with Morocco’s broader vision to elevate its digital economy under the “Digital Morocco 2030” blueprint, which was endorsed by King Mohammed VI. The plan emphasizes digital innovation, positioning startups as key drivers of economic transformation and development. As part of this strategy, there are targeted incentives aimed at strengthening local startup incubators and enhancing their capacity to compete globally.

    King Mohammed VI has long advocated for the modernization of Morocco’s digital infrastructure, encouraging the country to harness the rapid technological advancements of recent years. The call for venture-building operators is viewed as a practical measure to capitalize on the emerging opportunities in the digital sector while addressing challenges faced by early-stage companies in accessing necessary support.

    In launching this venture building initiative, Morocco ‘s Ministry of Digital Transformation hopes to build a sustainable startup ecosystem, improve the overall competitiveness of Moroccan companies, and ultimately, position Morocco as a leading tech hub in the region. The initiative will be a cornerstone of the country’s efforts to create a robust framework that nurtures innovation, with the added benefit of facilitating stronger links between local startups and global markets.

    The call for expressions of interest is open to qualified entities who can provide both operational and financial support, with a clear focus on fostering scalable and globally competitive startups. As the nation continues to invest in the future of its digital economy, the initiative represents a forward-thinking approach that will likely yield benefits for years to come.
