Vertiv and Cybastion Partner to Advance Critical Digital Infrastructure Across Northwest Africa
This collaboration is expected to help Vertiv to engage earlier in large-scale digital infrastructure initiatives, by combining its data centre expertise with Cybastion’s existing relationships and experience in government-led digital transformation programmes.
Vertiv , a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Cybastion , a U.S. technology company focused on accelerating digital transformation across Africa. The agreement establishes a framework for collaboration within Northwest Africa, with a focus on markets including Morocco, Ivory Coast, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Chad, and Gabon, where both companies have active engagement and strategic alignment in place.
This collaboration is expected to help Vertiv to engage earlier in large-scale digital infrastructure initiatives, by combining its data centre expertise with Cybastion’s existing relationships and experience in government-led digital transformation programmes.
“As AI, cloud and sovereign digital infrastructure investments accelerate across Africa, customers are increasingly seeking end-to-end ecosystems rather than standalone technology providers. Through our collaboration with Cybastion, Vertiv can position its power, cooling and critical infrastructure solutions within broader national digitalisation programmes, creating access to additional prospects.”
– Zineb Kamri, Regional Director for Northwest Africa, Vertiv
Kamri explains that the two companies aim to create a scalable framework that can be leveraged wherever joint opportunities arise.
“Cybastion has already established a strong footprint in West and Central Africa and is actively expanding into North Africa. This geographic reach complements Vertiv’s regional growth strategy. Morocco, in particular, represents a key market, especially given its ambition to become a regional digital hub and attract hyperscale and AI infrastructure investments.”

“As demand for data centres, AI infrastructure and secure digital platforms continues to grow across Africa, our collaboration with Vertiv strengthens our ability to rapidly deploy the critical digital infrastructure needed to help African countries move toward digital sovereignty.
– Dr. Thierry Wandji, CEO, Cybastion
