19 Moroccan start-ups selected for the first edition of the 212 Founders programme were unveiled to the public on Thursday 3 October, in the presence of Moulay Hafid Elalamy, Minister of Industry, Trade, Investment and the Digital Economy, and Abdellatif Zaghnoun, Director General of the CDG.
Launched in May 2019, this programme is part of the roll-out of the new strategy of the Caisse de Dépôt et de Gestion (CDG) and aims to bring about the emergence of start-ups of regional and global scale, from Morocco.
It is in response to the low level of funds raised by Moroccan start-ups that the CDG decided to place the development of the Moroccan entrepreneurial ecosystem at the heart of its priorities.
