A well-educated workforce, few cultural differences, and good economic conditions should be reason enough for a CIO to check out Morocco.
But here is one more: Did you know that in IT more women than men graduate from Morocco´s universities? While discussions about a better education and more women in IT are getting intense – with little results in Europe – the change is already happening in Africa. Don´t be afraid to ask the students for the reasons. They all speak English (and French, and Arabic, and…). Find out more about our move to Africa!
What to Expect in Morocco
As always, we have prepared an attractive, exciting, educational and varied program that will appeal to our participants as well as their companions.
We start the Move at the legendary Rick’s Café in Casablanca, where Humphrey Bogart once smiled at Ingrid Bergman while Sam played her song on the piano. Is there a better introduction to this beautiful country?
The Move begins the day after – you have the choice of where exactly: at AXA in Technolopolis, at Bank Al-Maghrib in the centre of Rabat or at the car manufacturer Renault in the port city of Tangier.
On the second “official” day of CIOmove we visit the Ai Dome at the University Mohammed VI Polytechnic in Rabat, where Prof. Amal El Fallah Seghrouchni and her doctoral students will show us scenarios where artificial intelligence has the greatest impact.
On Sessions Day we take the train to Marrakech. During the journey we will have enough time for exciting discussions and a lively exchange on your topics.
And on the last day… well, just read for yourself what awaits you. It will be unique!
