CKP CAPITAL

Moroccan accelerator · Casablanca

Accelerating Morocco's future.

CKP Capital is a private Moroccan accelerator. We turn talent into global technology companies — owned here, exported everywhere.

What CKP stands for

Three words, in that order.

The name is not decorative. It is the operating sequence: move fast, compound what you learn, and be judged on what comes out.

Celerity
Speed is a discipline, not a mood. We compress the distance between a decision and something shipped — weeks instead of quarters, with a date attached to every milestone.
Knowledge
What one member learns, every member uses. Documentation, open data, playbooks, and peers who pick up the phone. Nobody should solve twice what has already been solved once.
Productivity
Value that can be counted, not narrated. Products that sell, companies that employ, capital that stays here. The output is the argument.

The situation

The talent is here. The system is not — yet.

Too much scattered energy

Dozens of initiatives launched in parallel, with no shared programme, no milestones and no measurement. Effort gets lost.

Little patient Moroccan capital

The best projects go looking elsewhere for what they should be able to find here.

Knowledge that doesn't circulate

Every founder relearns alone what another founder has already solved.

Our answer

A collective, a programme, a heading.

01

A collective

Operators who have built, sold, failed and started again — in Morocco, in Europe, in the United States. Reachable, not decorative.

02

A programme

Dated milestones, quantified objectives, deliverables. Not vague mentoring: an industrial trajectory.

03

A heading

2030: export first-rank Moroccan solutions. 2040: have changed the scale of the country.

What we accelerate

We don't claim to be good everywhere.

These are the domains where our collective has real density — people who have actually operated in them.

01

Informal commerce & economic inclusion

Hundreds of thousands of merchants operate outside any formal system: no commercial identity, no payment infrastructure, no access to credit or to organised markets. We back products that formalise without excluding — commercial identity, payments, market access, and the rights that come with them.

What we're looking for: Merchant tooling, micro-payment rails, informal-sector credit scoring, digital souk infrastructure.

02

Craft & creative industries

Moroccan craftsmanship has the material and the skill. What it lacks is product design, brand and a route to international shelves. Traditional craft, but modern — and priced accordingly.

What we're looking for: Craft-native brands, export logistics, workshop production tooling, design-led marketplaces.

03

Smart territories

Digital infrastructure stops at the city limits. Communes and villages run essential services — water, waste, tourism, civil records — on paper. We back operators who bring these online at a cost a rural commune can actually carry.

What we're looking for: Municipal service platforms, resource metering, rural tourism infrastructure, local civic tooling.

04

Education & skills

We already operate a tested pedagogy, including with under-18s: each session is a situation — a client brief, a problem to solve — and the technical tool is only the means. We back teams building on the same principle.

What we're looking for: Practice-based learning platforms, vocational upskilling, assessment tooling, Arabic and Darija-native content.

05

Artificial intelligence & agentic systems

Not model research — deployment. Agents that do real work inside real companies, automation of the administrative weight that slows Moroccan business down, and the documentation layer that makes it repeatable.

What we're looking for: Vertical AI agents, workflow automation, Arabic-language NLP, AI-native back-office products.

06

Blockchain & digital assets

Members of the collective have deployed digital-asset infrastructure for institutional actors. We are interested in the unglamorous half: custody, compliance, settlement, and the use cases where a distributed ledger is genuinely the right answer.

What we're looking for: Compliance and custody infrastructure, tokenised real-world assets, settlement rails, institutional tooling.

07

Energy & transition

Morocco has committed to a renewable trajectory at a scale that outpaces its industrial supply chain. The gap between the ambition and the engineering capacity is exactly where companies get built.

What we're looking for: Industrial efficiency software, renewable asset operations, grid and storage engineering, reconversion services.

08

Space & deep tech

Observation data is becoming cheap; the applications built on it are not. Agriculture, water management, urban planning and insurance all have unserved needs that satellite data can answer.

What we're looking for: Earth-observation applications, geospatial analytics, ground-segment tooling, deep-tech spinouts.

09

SaaS & MVP factory

A method more than a sector. We back founders who can compress the distance between a validated problem and a product people pay for — and who want the tooling and the discipline to do it repeatedly.

What we're looking for: B2B SaaS with an identified first customer, vertical software, products with a credible one-month path to production.

10

Community, media & growth

The collective built the first Moroccan professional digital community. Distribution is a durable advantage and it is systematically underbuilt in this market.

What we're looking for: Newsletter and community products, creator infrastructure, media businesses with a real business model.

Vision & mission

Our heading.

A vision is not a slogan. It is a destination, a date, and the path you accept to follow to get there.

Accelerating Morocco's future through community, synergy and innovation.

We are not a fund that screens deal flow. We are a community of knowledge, data and skills. What one learns, all use. What one builds, all can build on. It is the only way to move fast in a country where everything remains to be built.

Mission

Turn Moroccan talent into global technology companies — by giving them a structured programme, demanding peers, reachable experts, tools, and access to capital.

Horizons

Two dates we are accountable to.

2030

Export

Bring a critical mass of first-rank Moroccan technology companies into existence — deployed internationally, owned locally. Not showcases: products that sell, companies that employ, capital that stays here. Real value creation is the only indicator that counts.

2040

Write what comes next

Publish the “Morocco 2040” white paper: what the country can become technologically, and what has to be decided today to get there. An open document, written by operators, published freely.

What we hold to

Six values, and what they cost us.

Trust

The collective formed through trust — partners, neighbours, peers who share the same obsessions. Not transactional relationships.

Sovereignty

What is built here stays owned here. Priority to Moroccan capital and Moroccan technology.

Dignity

No trade is beneath respect. The street vendor, the artisan, the engineer: same respect, same rights, same tools.

Excellence

Deliver. We measure performance rather than declare it.

Integrity

A frontal refusal of corruption and cronyism. Merit decides.

Openness

Open source, open data, shared documentation, knowledge held in common.

“What we build here must stay owned here. We have nothing against foreign capital — we have something for Moroccan capital.”

The programme

A programme, not a mentorship.

Dated milestones. Quantified objectives. Deliverables. And people who answer when you call.

  1. 01

    Framing

    Vision, market, problem. We break the assumptions before anyone breaks ground on code.

    Exit: A validated problem and a quantified target.

  2. 02

    Build

    From MVP to sellable product, in weeks rather than quarters. Method, AI tooling, weekly reviews.

    Exit: A product in production and first users.

  3. 03

    Traction

    Distribution, pricing, first recurring revenue.

    Exit: An acquisition channel that works and a business model that holds.

  4. 04

    Scale

    Structuring, fundraising preparation, opening to international markets.

    Exit: A solid investor case and an activated network.

What you get

A lead operator

A peer who has already built in your field, available every week.

The collective

Access to the network's experts: technical, legal, design, growth, industrial, international.

A method

Our courses and workshops are real situations, not lectures. You learn by doing, with a brief and a client.

Tools

An AI agent stack, document templates, playbooks, preconfigured development environments.

The diaspora network

Moroccans of the World, present in international institutions and global companies — mobilised, not listed.

Access to capital

Preparation, introductions, and co-investment depending on the case.

What we expect in return

Full-time commitment, or a credible trajectory towards it. Transparency on the numbers, including the bad ones. Contribution to the collective: what you learn, you give back.

How we teach

Every module is built like a client engagement: a brief, a constraint, a deadline. The technical tool — a language, a framework, a model — is never the objective, only the means of delivering. We have tested this method on audiences ranging from children to executives. It works because you learn by doing, the way you learned to walk.

The collective

CKP Capital is not a team.

It is a network of operators who have built — in Morocco, Europe, North America and the Gulf. Profiles below are shown by role; individual identities are published once each member has approved it.

Venture builder

Ships production SaaS products in weeks. Several companies launched and operated.

Blockchain architect

Deploys digital-asset infrastructure, including for institutional actors in the Middle East.

Industrial programme director

Has run operations for international groups in construction, automotive, chemicals and energy.

Growth & community

Founded and grew the first Moroccan professional digital community. Specialist in newsletters and content distribution.

Art direction & design

Product design, brand identity and art direction for Moroccan and international brands.

Technology education

Designs and runs learn-by-doing programmes, from primary school to executive level.

International entrepreneurship

Startup operated from the United States, cross-functional role in a multinational, dual operating culture.

Agency & systems

Digital agency founder, specialist in CRM, automation and information systems.

Deep tech & space

Investment and operations in the space sector and observation technologies.

Moroccans of the World

Part of our strength comes from those who left. Our members are based in New York, Paris, in international institutions and in global companies. They are not names on a contact list: they take the call, open the door, and invest.

Key partners

We do not build alone.

Two partners are embedded in how CKP operates — in the programme itself, not on a logo wall.

Ai4X

An AI training franchise. Its purpose is to strengthen the African — and therefore Moroccan — entrepreneurial base, by putting practical AI skills within reach of the people who will build with them.

Zawia.tech

An AI-for-good association. It works on education, health and social challenges through AI innovation, rooted deliberately in Moroccan educational culture.
