Highlights of GITEX Africa 2024
For the second year running, Jalios took part in Africa's largest tech and start-up exhibition, GITEX Africa, from 29 to 31 May 2024 in Marrakech.
GITEX Africa brings together all the major technology players, trends and verticals, covering sectors such as smart cities, cybersecurity, the data economy, mobility, health and telecommunications. Gitex is the event that boosts Africa's digital advancement.
Why did Jalios take part in GITEX Africa ?
Boubacar :
By participating in Gitex Africa, our conviction to continue to participate in the development of digital Africa and to develop our relationships with our customers and partners on the continent.
Boubacar :
Jalios has been present and developing on the African market for several years. Our customers include: Benin's Ministry of National Defence, the Central Monetary Bank of Mauritania and the Central Bank of West African States.
Jalios' affinity with this market is as much human, with employees and partners who know and understand the region very well, as it is technological, with strong issues of sovereignty, independence and resilience.
This is also why Jalios is a sponsor of the 10k codeurs association, which aims to develop digital talent on the African continent.
Qu'est-ce qui était remarquable lors de cette édition du Gitex ?
Hamza :
At this year's event, we were honoured to be supported by the Moroccan Ministry of Finance, who chose the Jalios solution for their collaborative platform, and issued a press release about it.
Their contributions and feedback were greatly appreciated by the workshop participants. The stakes are clear: adopting a solution like the Jalios Digital Workplace will enable new, more collaborative, more participative and more engaging working practices, thanks to a tailor-made, rich, functional portal. And it's not just about being able to benefit from innovative solutions. It's essential that organisations can also take ownership of them and co-construct them. The two key factors for success are, on the one hand, the high customisation potential of the solution and, on the other, the proximity that the publisher maintains with its customers via its local partners, such as Giantlink, which was also present as an exhibitor at Gitex.
The Digital Workplace used by the Budget Directorate, called DigiDB, gives each member of staff in the Budget Directorate personalised daily access, depending on their position, to :
- Information
- Knowledge
- Applications
- And contacts
They can do this wherever they are, whether they are physically in the office or working remotely, and at any time, for efficient and productive collaboration.
"The use of the new DigiDB intranet is key to improving collaboration, communication and document management within the budget department. By adopting good practice, every employee contributes to a more efficient and integrated working environment. As a result, we are gaining in efficiency and time, and maximising our productivity", the Budget Directorate.
This Digital Workplace, the fruit of a fruitful collaboration with the Moroccan Ministry of the Economy and Finance, represents much more than just a technological platform. It is a real lever for digital transformation that will enable the Budget Department to optimise its processes, strengthen collaboration and facilitate communication within its organisation.
What new features were presented at the show ?
Ariane :
Among all our new products, generative AI was the star this year. We were keen to demonstrate in concrete terms its impact on the day-to-day practices of employees and how it improves communication, collaboration and knowledge management.
And the strong point of our solution is that it is a genuine AI application platform, enabling the development of thematic assistants with complete confidence. With Jalios, our customers can :
- Choose the AI engine and LLM used
Keep control of their data
Explicitly specify the corpus of content sent to the AI engine
Assign governance over these AI assistants
