A memorandum of understanding (MoU) aimed at promoting industry 4.0 technologies was inked, Monday in Rabat, between the Ministry of Industry, Trade, Green and Digital Economy, the Digital Development Agency (ADD), the Euro-Mediterranean University of Fez (UEMF) and the Consortium of the “Fez Smart Factory” project.

The MoU aims to ensure convergence and synergy between the “Smart Factory” project, led by ADD, and the “Fez Smart Factory” project, which is initiated by UEMF and the members of the Consortium associated with the project.

Through this initiative, the partners join their efforts to make the most of the advanced technologies of Industry 4.0 and promote the use of digital technology in industrial SMEs.

On this occasion, Minister of Industry, Trade, Green and Digital Economy Moulay Hafid Alaoui said this partnership will combine “our digital and industrial assets to develop a competitive digital ecosystem promoting the transfer of industry 4.0 digital technologies.”

Indeed, industry 4.0 technologies offer Morocco a pool of unlimited opportunities to cross a new level of development and transform in depth the current modes of production, he said.

By responding to the general guidelines for the development of the sector by 2025, especially the “Digital Ecosystem and Innovation” component, this partnership reflects the common desire of the partners to contribute to improving the competitiveness of the Moroccan industry and strengthen its international positioning.
