On October 7–8, 2025, the Abdou Diouf International Conference Center (CICAD) in Diamniadio will host the second edition of Invest in Senegal (Fii Senegal). This flagship event showcases Senegal’s ambition to become a regional hub for innovation, transparency, and sustainable growth. For Morocco, a country already positioning itself as a bridge between Africa and global markets, this forum represents an opportunity to strengthen South-South cooperation and expand its influence across West Africa.
The New Investment Code 2025: Boosting Responsible Growth
One of the highlights of the forum will be the presentation of Senegal’s new Investment Code 2025, led by APIX (the National Agency for Investment Promotion and Major Projects). This updated framework is designed to stimulate strategic and responsible projects by offering enhanced incentives, streamlined administrative procedures, better land access, and stronger support for SMEs.
For Moroccan investors, who are already active in banking, telecom, real estate, and renewable energy sectors in Senegal, this reform presents a golden opportunity to scale their activities and create sustainable value on both sides.
Senegal Vision 2050 and Morocco’s Vision 2030: Shared Ambitions
The forum is part of the larger Vision Senegal 2050, which mirrors Morocco’s own Vision 2030 strategy. Both countries are investing heavily in renewable energy, transport infrastructure, and agricultural modernization. Senegal is advancing with a 500 MW solar power plant, new wind farms, and modern transport solutions such as the electric BRT and TER railway.
Morocco, with projects like Noor Ouarzazate and high-speed rail, has proven experience to share. Collaboration in these areas can lead to joint ventures that reinforce food security, green energy, and sustainable mobility across Africa.
Building a Competitive Digital Ecosystem
Digital transformation is another central theme of Invest in Senegal 2025. With initiatives such as the Startup Act, sovereign cloud, and a national data center, Senegal is laying the groundwork for a competitive digital economy.
Morocco is already a leading tech hub in North Africa, with Casablanca emerging as a vibrant ecosystem for fintech, e-commerce, and AI. The Senegal forum will therefore serve as a platform for Moroccan tech entrepreneurs and startups to build partnerships, showcase innovations, and scale solutions designed for African markets.

These activities offer Moroccan companies unique opportunities to position themselves as leaders in sustainable investment, while creating meaningful partnerships with Senegalese and international counterparts.
Conclusion: Strengthening Morocco–Senegal Ties for a Shared Future
Invest in Senegal 2025 is more than a business forum—it is a continental laboratory of ideas and partnerships. For Morocco, it offers a chance to deepen economic ties, export expertise in renewable energy, digital innovation, and agriculture, and contribute to Africa’s sustainable development agenda.
By connecting Dakar and Rabat through shared ambitions, both countries reaffirm that Africa’s growth story will be driven by innovation, resilience, and collaboration.
