Algeria unveils AI Strategy

Algeria has launched its national strategy for artificial intelligence (AI) during the 3rd African Start-up Conference in Algiers. The initiative aims to develop local AI solutions and implement them across various sectors to reduce reliance on imported technologies. The strategy focuses on six key areas, including scientific research, creating a supportive environment for AI, building local expertise, and assisting start-ups to provide solutions that meet business needs. The AI strategy follows Algeria’s national digital transformation plan, introduced earlier in 2024. Together, these policies aim to accelerate the country's digital transition, a priority since President Abdelmadjid Tebboune took office in 2019.
