🚨JUST IN: Harmattan AI, a next-generation defense prime developing autonomous defense systems led by Moroccan founder Mouad M’Ghari, has signed a major strategic partnership with the Royal Armed Forces of the Kingdom of Morocco.
For context, Harmattan AI just raised 200m€ Series B a few months ago at a 1.4Bn€ valuation, led by Dassault Aviation.
This partnership reflects the Kingdom of Morocco’s decision to deploy next-generation autonomous air defense capabilities at scale from 2026 onwards and to build a sovereign, technologically advanced defense industrial base.
Harmattan AI will contribute its expertise to support three key objectives:
➡️ Establish manufacturing capabilities in Morocco to produce autonomous defense systems;
➡️ Create an ambitious Research & Development centre dedicated to artificial intelligence in defense systems on Moroccan territory;
➡️ Develop partnerships with Moroccan higher education and research institutions.
50+ Moroccans will be recruited in the next 6 months to develop strategic and sovereign project for Moroccan defense capabilities.
Amir Benmahjoub has just joined as the General Manager for Morocco, joining from Palantir.
We are proud to see Harmattan AI, led by a Moroccan founder, contribute to Morocco’s vision and contribute to building the autonomous forces of tomorrow.
