Casablanca officially launched its ambitious Casablanca Tech Valley project following a partnership agreement signed on April 30 between the Commune of Casablanca and the Caisse de Dépôt et de Gestion (CDG) group.

The project, expected to generate over 20,000 direct jobs, aims to expand economic development across various districts of Morocco’s commercial capital.

The agreement was signed by Nabila Rmili, president of Casablanca’s communal council, and Khalid Safir, director general of CDG, at a ceremony attended by regional and local officials. Overseen by Ewane, a CDG subsidiary, Casablanca Tech Valley is positioned as a major extension of the Casanearshore zone.

The initiative is designed to reinforce Casablanca’s status as Africa’s leading tech hub, supporting Morocco’s digital transformation and global value chain integration strategies.

Located in Sidi Othmane, the project also seeks to promote urban balance, social inclusion, and sustainable growth by enhancing underdeveloped zones and aligning with modern urban planning standards.
