Morocco AI Index — Q1 2026
Our first read on the size, shape and momentum of Morocco's AI ecosystem: startups identified, sectors covered and where capital is starting to move.
The Morocco AI Index is our quarterly measure of the country’s AI ecosystem — built from the startups we track, the corporate needs we qualify, and the deals and events we run. This first edition sets the baseline.
What we see
The market is early but accelerating. AI is moving from experimentation to procurement, and the gap between supply (startups) and demand (corporates, institutions) is where most value is currently lost.
- Concentration in a few sectors — banking, healthcare and industry lead early adoption.
- A visibility gap — strong technical teams remain unknown to the buyers and investors who need them.
- Thin but rising deal flow — first rounds are closing, mostly at pre-seed and seed.
Why an index
You cannot structure what you cannot measure. A shared, comparable read of the market helps founders benchmark, corporates source, investors filter, and institutions plan.
The goal isn’t a vanity number — it’s a decision tool the whole ecosystem can act on.
What’s next
Each quarter we will expand coverage, add funding and use-case data, and publish sector deep-dives. If you’re building, buying, funding or structuring AI in Morocco, get on the list to receive the next edition first.
