“We see Egypt as the anchor country of our expansion into the Middle East and North Africa and we look forward to playing our role in realising the government’s Egypt Vision 2030 strategy, supported by its ‘Digital Egypt’ initiative.”

He added, “Partnering with local businesses will help in developing digital infrastructure, promoting digital skills development, creating opportunities for entrepreneurship and economic growth, all while tapping into Egypt’s wealth of local tech talent.”

Rapid Growth and Strong Partnerships

Cloudmania, Liquid C2’s cloud and cybersecurity distribution unit, operates in 35 countries across the Middle East and Africa. Partners benefit from comprehensive sales enablement programs, as well as marketing and technical support, allowing them to focus on core operations by alleviating backend work.

Continuing its mission to equip the region’s partner network with top-tier cloud and security services, Cloudmania’s partnership with Microsoft offers solutions like Microsoft 365 and Azure, enhancing the technological capabilities of the local market.

Billionaires.Africa reported that Liquid C2, the cloud and cybersecurity subsidiary of Cassava Technologies, formed a strategic partnership with the global tech giant Google Cloud and the artificial intelligence company Anthropic. This initiative is set to transform cloud, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence solutions for businesses throughout Africa. Building upon its existing relationships with Google Cloud in the region, Liquid C2’s new partnership marks a substantial progression in its endeavor to deliver state-of-the-art cloud and cybersecurity services.

This expansion underscores Liquid C2’s commitment to advancing cloud services and cybersecurity solutions in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
