Morocco scores 74/100 (Grade B), ranking 2nd of 54 African markets and up 1 point since Jan 2026. Its strongest pillar is Connectivity & Fibre at 94 of 100, with three of five pillars rated green. Its largest drag is Power Infrastructure, at 48 of 100.
Each pillar carries its own strength out of 100, banded red, amber or green. Arrows mark movement since the previous snapshot.
The composite out of 100 is the weighted sum of these five pillars. A pillar’s figure is its own strength out of 100, measured against the most that pillar could contribute, which is what the red, amber and green bands read against. Full method
Each axis is a pillar as a share of its own maximum, so a balanced market reads as a regular pentagon and a lopsided one as a spike. Hover a point for the exact figure.
Composite readiness across the last six snapshots. Every snapshot is rescored under the current methodology (v1), so points are comparable even as weights evolve.

The Nexus AI Factory, backed by Nexus Core Systems, Nvidia, Naver and Lloyd Capital, will sit outside Casablanca and serve EMEA. It opens with 40MW of AI compute on Nvidia Blackwell GB200 hardware and is planned to reach 500MW on renewable supply from TAQA.
Oracle launched a public cloud region hosted by N+ONE Datacenters in Casablanca, the first full hyperscaler region in North Africa, with a second planned for Settat. It moves Morocco from "hyperscaler-adjacent" to hyperscaler-present, the shift that separates the top of this index on connectivity from the rest.
Digital transition minister Amal El Fallah Seghrouchni launched studies for what Morocco bills as Africa’s largest data centre, targeting 500MW by 2030. The design is entirely renewable-powered and cooled with Atlantic seawater, positioned as a "data embassy" on the edge of the Sahel.
