The operator announces the signing of the 8th investment agreement with the Moroccan government. Objective: to support the Kingdom’s digital transformation process.
(Cio Mag) – Under the terms of this agreement, Orange Morocco undertakes to carry out an investment program of 5.69 billion dirhams over the next three years.
This investment program will enable the operator to continue developing and strengthening its telecommunications infrastructure. This involves, among other things, accelerating the deployment of High and Very High Speed Mobile and Fixed Internet in Morocco.
“The objective is to continue to support the digitalization of economic players in the different regions of the Kingdom,” the group said in a press release.
Concretely, this budget envelope will allow Orange Morocco to continue the development of 4G and mobile coverage. The telecom operator also plans to continue building its FTTH (Fiber To The Home) infrastructure. The objective is to align with the government’s guidance note which aims to accelerate the deployment of the national broadband plan.
“At the same time, these investments will allow Orange to maintain its efforts to digitize and automate processes, to develop new products and services,” adds the same source.
Since 1999, the date of the creation of MEDI TELECOM (under the Orange brand since 2016), the operator has granted nearly 105 billion dirhams (including licensing costs), in order to develop its activities in the different regions of the country. .
