Inwi Strengthens Its Commitment to Moroccan Gaming at the 2025 Expo
Fez– At this year's Morocco Gaming Expo, Inwi has once again made it clear: gaming in Morocco is not a passing trend, but a fast-growing sector with real potential, and Inwi intends to help shape its future. As a leading force in Morocco's digital transformation, Inwi returned for the second edition of the Morocco Gaming Expo (MGE), affirming its long-term commitment to the national gaming ecosystem. More than just a presence at the event, Inwi came with an entire showcase of high-performance connectivity and hosting solutions, specifically designed to meet the demanding standards of gamers and developers. Gaming is no longer a niche hobby, it's an economic and creative engine. And Inwi seems to understand this better than most. By leveraging its technological know-how, the company has built infrastructure that supports both seasoned professionals and young talents, making high-level tools and platforms more accessible across the country. A highlight of Inwi's participation was the unveiling of the winners of the 'Innovative Mobile Game Ideas' competition. Organized in partnership with the Ministry of Youth, Culture and Communication and the Ministry of Higher Education, this initiative targeted students from Moroccan universities and higher education institutions. Launched on May 19, 2025, the contest aimed to spark creative thinking and encourage entrepreneurial spirit among a new generation of Moroccan game developers. The three winning projects were announced during the expo, proof that talent is alive and well across the country, and that innovation is a skill that can be nurtured with the right support. The Morocco Gaming Expo itself has quickly become the country's flagship gaming event. After attracting over 41,000 visitors in its inaugural edition, this year's event solidified its reputation as a national hub for developers, publishers, content creators, investors, and institutions. It's not just a trade show, it's a meeting ground for ideas, ambitions, and strategies to shape the Moroccan gaming industry. Inwi's renewed involvement in the MGE sends a strong message. The company is not simply sponsoring the sector, it's investing in it. From enhancing infrastructure to nurturing creativity, Inwi is positioning gaming as a vehicle for economic growth, technological innovation, and digital inclusion. This is not about riding a wave of popularity; it's about building a sustainable and competitive ecosystem that can thrive beyond borders. Gaming in Morocco is becoming a career path, a platform for expression, and a field where young Moroccans can compete on a global stage. With Inwi's backing, the sector is no longer just growing; it's gaining structure, support, and long-term vision.
