The “Maroc Numeric Fund II” (MNF II) has said that it will expand its investment to include startups started by Moroccans living outside Morocco.This is done because the Moroccan diaspora has made a significant contribution to the growth of the Moroccan startup ecosystem.
The Fund’s control bodies agreed to this change to MNF II’s investment strategy, allowing it to invest in companies with headquarters in Morocco and Moroccan startups with Moroccan bases.
The targeted startups must have at least one important founder with Moroccan citizenship and a Moroccan subsidiary that adds value according to standards that align with the investment company’s development strategy.
MNF II started in 2018 and has already invested in 6 businesses, including Fintech, EdTech, LegalTech, and AI sectors.
It replaces the MNF fund, which was started in 2010 and ended in 2016 after making 17 investments in different Moroccan tech businesses.
