The National Investment Fund (NIIF) has taken a major step toward advancing Algeria’s digital agenda with the launch of a new technology hub, unveiled on September 15 in Algiers as part of the National Digital Transformation Strategy.
At the signing ceremony, NIIF General Manager Saleh Labbani formalized the agreement with four leading industry figures: Boumediene Senussi, General Manager of Optimum Telecom Algeria (Gezi); Boujemaa Awaroun, General Manager of IT-DEV; Falla Kawar, President and General Manager of INET; and Jalal Saidouni, General Manager of SMART TEST.
The hub is set to play a pivotal role in accelerating digitalization—particularly in the financial sector—by pooling expertise, infrastructure, and technological resources in collaboration with NIIF.
Officials emphasized that this initiative aligns with Algeria’s broader vision to modernize state institutions, stimulate economic growth, and establish the country as a key technology player at both the national and regional levels.
