GITEX goes global: TalentNations gears up for Africa Edition

April 05, 2023 - For many years, GITEX has served as a bridge between global innovation clusters, IT giants, and governments. This historic occasion will be this significant show's first international outing and highlights the importance of the continent's IT sector on the global scene. Over 20,000 trade buyers, 125 government delegations, 900+ international exhibitors, and startups will all attend GITEX Africa Morocco.

GITEX Africa Morocco has the objective of enhancing Morocco's digital ecosystem by showcasing the innovative accomplishments of both the public and private sectors, recognizing investment opportunities, and forming partnerships with technology operators who are invited to participate in this important digital event. By aiding in Africa's development and promoting economic ties with the rest of the world, Morocco is playing a vital role. Due to its strategic geographic location, political stability, and excellent infrastructure, Morocco is ideally located at the intersection of Europe, Sub-Saharan Africa, and the Middle East, making it possible to transform into a regional trade center. Morocco is the fifth largest economy in Africa, the second biggest African investor in sub-Saharan Africa, the largest African investor in West Africa, and ranked third among all African countries on the World Bank's ease of doing business index.

Investment from foreign countries in Morocco is experiencing an upward trend. According to a recent report from Endeavor Africa, the digital economy of the continent is predicted to expand from $115 billion to $712 billion by 2050. Furthermore, startup funding growth in Africa is six times higher than any other region. In a mere six years, Africa has produced seven unicorns, four of which were established last year. The development of African talent is also currently at an all-time high. Microsoft and Google, global technology giants, have already established multi-billion-dollar innovation and talent centers in Africa, while internet access has increased to 522.8 million people, which constitutes 40% of the African population.

TalentNations team will attend GITEX Africa this year as exhibitors. We believe this event provides an easy and effective way for exhibitors to connect with tech titans, governments, startups, investors to accelerate, collaborate, and explore new ventures. We encourage our partners and clients to visit GITEX in Morocco and become a part of the world’s rising tech continent.
