The Algerian National Investment Fund (FNI) has initiated a significant step towards advancing the nation’s digital agenda by signing a pivotal agreement to establish a new technology hub. This strategic move, central to Algeria’s national digital transition strategy, brings together the FNI with a robust consortium of four prominent companies in the digital sector. Among these key partners is Optimum Télécom Algérie, widely known as Djezzy, a leading telecommunications provider in the region. This collaborative effort underscores a strong commitment to fostering innovation and digital transformation across the country, aiming to position Algeria at the forefront of the digital economy in North Africa.

The formal agreement for this groundbreaking Algerian tech initiative was cemented through signatures from key representatives: Salah Labani, Director General of the FNI; Boumediene Senouci, Director General of Optimum Télécom Algérie (Djezzy); Boudjemaa Aouaroun, Director General of IT-DEV Spa; Fella Gaouar, CEO of Inet Spa; and Djalal Saidouni, Director General of Smart Test Spa. This newly formed technology hub is designed to become a crucial catalyst for digitalization, with a primary focus on modernizing the financial sector. Its core mission involves unifying the diverse competencies, advanced infrastructure, and technological subsidiaries, alongside the participations currently held by the FNI. By federating these resources, the hub aims to leverage collective strengths to drive forward-thinking solutions and become a major player in shaping Algeria’s digital landscape, particularly within its financial institutions.
This structured development represents a crucial stride that aligns perfectly with the Algerian public authorities’ overarching objective to modernize state institutions and enhance their digital capabilities. The FNI’s collaboration with these digital powerhouses is poised to accelerate the implementation of cutting-edge technologies, fostering a more efficient, secure, and digitally integrated Algerian economy.
