Oracle announced its plan to open two Oracle Cloud Regions in Morocco, offering enterprise cloud services to local and regional organizations and driving digital transformation across various sectors in Casablanca and Settat across Africa.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for establishing these cloud regions in Morocco was signed during GITEX Africa 2024.
“The opening of Oracle’s public cloud in Morocco will accelerate the digital transformation throughout the region,” said Ms. Ghita Mezzour, Minister Delegate to the Head of Government in charge of Digital Transition and Administrative Reform. “This strategic expansion, with a hyperscaler like Oracle, positions Morocco as a unique player in the region and allows an even more dynamic development of skills and growth opportunities.”
“As one of the largest economies in Africa, and with strong business and cultural connections with West Africa, Maghreb, and Europe, Morocco offers unique growth opportunities for businesses that are aiming to accelerate their expansion by deploying the latest digital technologies,” said Richard Smith, executive vice president, Technology, EMEA, Oracle. “ The new regions will also serve as the foundation for the Moroccan government’s modernization of its public services to serve its people better.”
