💻 Digital Transformation: Challenges, Strategies, and Political Will 📊 Digital transformation in Algeria is making great strides, but there are still challenges to overcome, such as resistance to change, the need to strengthen training in artificial intelligence, and the importance of establishing a strong local infrastructure. In this video, I share my thoughts on Algeria's digital program and the strategies needed for a successful transformation. We discuss the essential role of political will, as well as the need for continuous commitment, communication, and training at all levels. We also talk about the crucial importance of local data centers to ensure efficient information management, as well as the cybersecurity challenges that require constant vigilance, where every victory counts in the face of cyberattacks. Digital transformation is not just about technology, but also about managing human and organizational change. This shift must be embraced not only by institutions but also by citizens. I invite you to watch the video and share your thoughts on this journey of digital transformation in our country: https://lnkd.in/e-zEMAm4 Your comments and experiences regarding digital transformation in Algeria are welcome, for a better digital future! #HCN #MNS #MPT #AT #Mobilis #Djezzy #Ooredoo #ARPCE #TransformationNumérique #AlgerieElectronique #AlgerieNumerique #StrategieNumérique #IntelligenceArtificielle #CentresDeDonnees #ResistanceAuChangement #VolontePolitique #Cybersecurite #PaiementMobile #InfrastructureNumerique #FormationIA #EfficacitéTechnologique GAAN ALGERIA Karim BIBI TRIKI Yacine Oualid Djallal BOUABDALLAH Tadjeddine BACHIR Abdelouaheb Gaoua 🇵🇸 Younes Grar Hamid Bessalah

📢📢Aspiring Tunisian entrepreneurs, do you have a groundbreaking idea 💡 but hesitate to launch your startup? This hesitation often stems from a lack of information and dispersed sources of truth. As a fresh entrepreneur, I searched extensively to understand the Tunisian ecosystem. 🌟The good news is: regardless of the final outcome, I'm documenting all the steps, the people who helped me, and the events I attended. 🎯My goal is to provide future entrepreneurs with a comprehensive guide to safely (if I can say !) launch their startups. To those who have preceded me, your feedback is more than appreciated. Let's build a stronger entrepreneurial community together! One of the greatest resources I've found is the series of podcasts by TunisianStartups. The first guest is Oussama Messaoud, a serial entrepreneur and president of TunisianStartups. #Innovation #Entrepreneurship #StartupJourney

[Yassir's Journey of Innovation] Founded in 2017 by Noureddine Tayebi and Mahdi Yettou, Yassir has quickly become a force to be reckoned with in North Africa's tech landscape. What started as a ride-hailing app has transformed into a platform offering services across VTC, deliveries, and e-commerce. Today, Yassir serves 5 million users across 9 countries, connecting people with local solutions and fostering economic growth in Algeria, Tunisia, Mauritania, and beyond. 🌍 With its roots firmly grounded in the MENA region, Yassir raised $150 million in 2022, marking it as one of the most valuable start-ups in North Africa and the Middle East. This milestone reflects not only the platform’s growth but also the vision behind it—empowering communities through technology and creating opportunities for local economies. Noureddine and Mahdi’s journey from North Africa to Silicon Valley and back is a testament to the power of homegrown talent. After honing their skills at Stanford University and in global tech companies, they returned to the region with a clear mission: to make an impact. Their efforts are setting the stage for the next wave of tech innovation in North Africa, inspiring entrepreneurs to look within their own communities for solutions and opportunities. 🚀 As Yassir expands its footprint, the company's focus remains on innovation, continuously exploring new verticals, such as Yassir Express—an e-commerce solution aimed at revolutionizing local markets. The future looks bright for this pioneering platform, one that is setting an example for how tech can serve as a catalyst for change in emerging economies.

I am both pleased and honored to be master of ceremonies for the conference program at the Moroccan Pavilion for E-Government 🇲🇦. I would like to thank the incredible teams of the Ministry of Digital Transition and Administration Reform Ministère de la Transition Numérique et de la Réforme de l'Administration and the Digital Development Agency (Agence de Développement du Digital-ADD). Discover an extensive program with exceptional moderators and speakers! Meet us at Morocco E-GOV pavilion for the second edition of GITEX AFRICA in Marrakech. As Senior Partnerships and Digital Ecosystem Manager at INNOVX, I greatly appreciate this image of the private and public sectors working hand in hand because I firmly believe in its ability to significantly benefit and boost digital transition and development. Such collaborations combine the strengths of both sectors, leading to several advantages: 1. **Innovation and Efficiency**: Private sector companies often bring innovation, agility, and efficiency, which can help accelerate digital transformation projects. 2. **Funding and Resources**: Public-private partnerships can leverage the funding and resources from both sectors, ensuring that projects have adequate support and investment. 3. **Expertise and Knowledge Sharing**: Collaboration allows for the sharing of expertise and best practices, enabling both sectors to learn from each other and improve their digital capabilities. 4. **Infrastructure Development**: Public-private partnerships can help in building and upgrading digital infrastructure, making it more robust and accessible. 5. **Public Interest and Regulation**: The public sector can ensure that digital initiatives align with public interests and regulatory requirements, promoting fairness, security, and inclusivity. Overall, such partnerships can drive comprehensive and sustainable digital transformation, benefiting the economy and society as a whole, thereby enhancing Morocco's technological capabilities and leadership; which is actually the main objective for INNOVX and OCP Group. #NIYA #NEFS #PASSION #AUDACITY #INNOVX #DIGITALMOROCCO #ADD #EMBEDDEDTECHNOLOGY #GITEXAFRICA

🤦🏻‍♂️Another reason why tech events in Algeria fail to attract key decision-makers or deliver meaningful ROI. After two years of attending these events, I’ve concluded we are still far from hosting impactful ones. I don’t blame the organizers, they’re doing an amazing job and giving their best effort. I also don’t judge the exhibitors for using viral marketing, it worked, but was it truly impactful? Was it worth it? What really matters is the outcome: meaningful connections, brand visibility, and real business growth. Does exposure in Algeria mean more than conversion? What’s the point of 30 million views if your ROI is null? Are we getting the right audience at these events? I bring this up because Goubba won the Best B2C Award at ECSEL expo 2022. Yes, we had downloads and engagement, but what’s next? Without conversion, it feels shallow. All I see from this event is, unfortunately, this image, rather than innovation and shining stars. So, is it really worth participating in these events if the real value is still missing? Let’s focus on acquiring clients and users through more proven methods. Keep me posted on anything new.

Elevating Moroccan AI: A Call for Authentic Engagement and Impact The GenAI Summit Maroc is underway, bringing together prominent figures in the Moroccan tech scene. While it's positive to see discussions around AI taking place, I believe we can aim higher and create even more impactful events that truly showcase Morocco's potential in this field. One area where we can improve is fostering genuine community engagement. Building a strong online presence with active and interactive platforms is crucial for connecting with and inspiring the next generation of AI innovators. Another area for potential growth is ensuring that events deliver a cutting-edge experience that aligns with the latest advancements in AI. This includes leveraging sophisticated tools and technologies, such as advanced conversational AI, to enhance attendee engagement and knowledge sharing. As CEO of 01TEK, a Moroccan-American company specializing in AI solutions, I'm passionate about seeing our country become a leader in the global AI landscape. We have the talent and drive to create innovative AI solutions that address local challenges and contribute to global advancements. I envision a future where Moroccan-led initiatives drive the AI narrative, fostering collaboration, knowledge sharing, and the development of cutting-edge solutions. Let's work together to build a vibrant AI ecosystem that benefits our nation and positions Morocco as a force to be reckoned with in the world of AI. #AIinMorocco #DigitalTransformation #MoroccanAI #Innovation #CommunityBuilding #01TEK

Proud to have participated in the 1st edition of the Ensuring Secure Cloud Migration Summit, organized by DGSSI CTF 2024 in collaboration with the Ministry of Digital Transition and Administrative Reform. This event highlighted the growing importance of Cloud in Morocco's digital transformation strategy, perfectly aligned with the objectives and vision of the 2030 digital plan, particularly for the public sector, which plays a key role in this transition. It brought together national and international experts to exchange best practices and address the challenges related to data migration to the cloud, a crucial pillar for the country’s digital future. Orange Maroc teams, alongside our partner Amazon Web Services (AWS), shared their expertise to support this transformation. The presence of AWS further strengthens the strategic partnership between Orange and AWS, aimed at providing innovative and secure solutions tailored to the needs of the public sector and Moroccan businesses.  Hind Lfal Adil OUASTRI Hind SayegrihRhizlane Fadouach YOUSSEF HOUARI Simohamed Lahrizi Anouar DIBICHE, PMP® Nouhade MECHKOUR Mouad Saissi Hassani Rajaa ASSADE, PMP® mohamed benyounoussy merouane elasri Meriem ZERROU Mohamed BENNIS Mehdi Naourass Tarik Belhachemi #OrangeMaroc #DigitalTransformation   #CloudMigration   #AWS #PublicSectorInnovation  #AWSPartnership  #CloudSecurity   #DataMigration  #2030DigitalVision  #OrangeMaroc  #SecureSolutions   #MoroccoDigitalFuture #DGSSI

How Software Can Drive Morocco's Economic Growth 🚀 🇲🇦 The software market represents an incredible opportunity for Morocco's economy. Unlike traditional industries that rely on raw materials, software requires only talent, creativity, and determination. With the right focus, we can attract and keep some of the brightest minds, build exportable products, and create long-term assets that don't deplete with use. Imagine a future where Moroccan-made software is being used globally, driving innovation and contributing to our national GDP. 🚀 Healthcare, education, supply chain, finance, procurement, sports... Software solutions can be applied to virtually any industry. But here's the reality: software can't be improvised. Having a good idea or being passionate about technology is not enough. There's a specific know-how and a methodology required to take a software business from zero to global success. From finding product-market fit, to building, marketing, selling, and maintaining a product—it’s tough. The company has to be organized with a culture focused on growth and efficiency. And if you don’t find that product-market fit fast enough? The business might not survive. That’s why speed and market interactions are crucial. 💡 Now, here’s something I’ve been thinking about and I’d love to hear your thoughts: What if there was an incubator/investor that focused purely on #software? One that worked with entrepreneurs who already have industry expertise, and are passionate and tenacious enough to build something great? Imagine if they were equipped with best practices from day one, accompanied by experienced people who have already made it happen. What if we could build an ecosystem where Morocco serves as a lab for developing software solutions, which can then be exported globally? By leveraging our local talent and expertise, we could create a thriving hub of innovation that not only drives our economy but also positions Morocco as a key player in the global tech scene. Could this be a game-changer for Morocco? How many people do you know who have the desire to create software products but aren't sure where to begin? Let me know your thoughts in the comments. Would love to hear what you think! P.S: By the way, if you have a software project and you want to discuss it, DM me ;) #startups #MoroccoDigital2030 #SaaS #makeImpact #roadToSuccess
