Following yesterday's news that companies in Zambia and Cote d’Ivoire are being enabled to digitally boost their businesses, there’s news of another business-focused digital offering in Africa – this time in Morocco.
HCLSoftware, the software business of HCLTech, and Atlas Cloud Services – a branch of Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) Morocco – have joined forces in a partnership aimed at supporting businesses’ digital transitions in Morocco.
The partnership places a strong focus on digital and software sovereignty within Morocco. The partners say it will ensure access to state-of-the-art cloud services that encompass collaboration, productivity, availability, security and infrastructure.
Additionally, the solution is designed to meet the specific requirements of businesses, offering a comprehensive range of features – such as robust professional messaging, secure instant communication, efficient video conferencing and flexible data storage – that can be accessed from any location.
The partnership also aims to enhance technological capabilities by localising data within Morocco.
The collaboration between HCLSoftware and Atlas Cloud Services also aims to harness talent from Mohammed VI Polytechnic University for future inclusion within HCLSoftware. This, the partners say, represents a commitment to fostering local talent through extensive training and support for HCLSoftware’s solutions.
HCLSoftware develops, markets, sells and supports solutions in four key areas: digital transformation; data and analytics; AI and intelligent automation; and enterprise security.
Atlas Cloud Services, a subsidiary of UM6P, responsible for overseeing data centres in Morocco, strives to accelerate the digital transformation of the national and regional ecosystem, while ensuring digital sovereignty of Moroccan businesses.
