Morocco’s Start-ups and SME – Partners for digitalization
The Competence Centre for Automation in Morocco (CCoA) promoted dialogue between Moroccan start-ups and SMEs and the German industry in a webinar in December 2022, and discussed perspectives for cooperation.
At an online matching on 07 February 2023, the young companies presented themselves in pitches – and showed a high level of industrial solutions development.
Morocco offers rich potential for industrial cooperation, due to its renowned universities and its dynamic start-ups and SMEs within a global network.
The seminar in December provided information on how internationally active companies can cooperate successfully with Moroccan partners, and discover potential for R&D projects in Morocco.
For industrial companies, the forms of cooperation range from classic off-shoring, to participation in companies, to setting up their own subsidiaries, which can then take over development or cross-national sales in Africa.
Johannes Kirsch of ZVEI analysed the resource requirements and international perspectives of the German electrical industry. Alen Avdic, founder of the Dortmund-based cybersecurity company Tectag, reported why and how he chose Morocco as a location for expansion to Africa.
