Iqlaa stands as Morocco's premier acceleration program exclusively designed for iHubs within the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI). Spearheaded by Africalia, Fondation Hiba, and Institut français, with crucial financial backing from the European Union, this initiative is dedicated to empowering young Moroccan enterprises in their journey towards solid structuring, sustainable growth, and scaling their operations.
A Multi-Edition Journey Towards Creative Excellence
Scheduled across three distinct editions until the close of 2029, Iqlaa's inaugural phase is set to provide comprehensive support to approximately 20 cultural and creative iHubs. The program features a meticulously structured three-step pathway:
- Integration: Onboarding and initial assessment.
- Reinforcement: Building core capacities and skills.
- Impulsion: Driving growth and market expansion.
This journey combines targeted training sessions, personalized business coaching, invaluable peer-to-peer interactions, robust networking opportunities, and bespoke development support.
Unlock Significant Financial Support and Global Opportunities
Selected iHubs are eligible for an initial seed grant, ranging between 3,000 and 5,000 EUR (30,000 and 50,000 DH). Furthermore, iHubs that successfully advance to the growth phase can access a substantial growth grant, valued between 30,000 and 45,000 EUR (300,000 and 450,000 DH), specifically allocated to finance their ambitious development projects.
Iqlaa also prepares participants for investment readiness and export ventures, alongside providing unique immersion opportunities within the dynamic European cultural and creative ecosystem. This comprehensive approach ensures that Moroccan iHubs are well-equipped to thrive both domestically and internationally.
