Orange Morocco is doubling down on its commitment to digital innovation by backing the growth of Nucleon Security, a promising cybersecurity startup. As part of its involvement in the Orange Fab Morocco accelerator program, the telecom giant has supported Nucleon through a successful €3 million funding round, which also drew investment from Orange Ventures and several international backers.
This new capital will allow Nucleon Security to fast-track the development of its AI-driven cybersecurity platform, which uses a cutting-edge “agent-based” approach. Designed to provide businesses and institutions with proactive, automated, and user-friendly protection, the platform is particularly suited to emerging markets, where cybersecurity threats are intensifying and infrastructure often lags behind.
Armed with this investment, Nucleon aims to expand its global footprint, with a particular focus on the African continent. The company’s SaaS solutions are built to align with local realities, offering real-time threat visibility for cybersecurity teams and empowering them to respond more rapidly and effectively.
For several months, Orange Morocco has been working closely with Nucleon Security, providing both strategic guidance and operational support through its Orange Fab program. By nurturing the growth of a homegrown tech company in such a critical and complex field, Orange is reinforcing its leadership role in building a secure and resilient digital ecosystem across Africa.
This partnership reflects a broader ambition: to ensure that innovation in cybersecurity is not only cutting-edge but also inclusive, scalable, and rooted in local expertise. It’s a move that positions both Nucleon and Orange as key players in shaping the continent’s digital future.
