2017: IBM and Morocco's National Telecommunications Regulatory Agency (ANRT) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to promote the adoption of cloud computing in Morocco. The MoU aimed to support the development of a regulatory framework for cloud computing, as well as to provide training and support for businesses and organizations looking to adopt cloud-based services.
