Cooperation between Algeria and China is strengthening each day with the signing of new agreements covering an increasing number of sectors. This Sunday, the public company Algeria Telecoms Satellite (ATS) and the Algerian Space Agency (ASAL) signed two memorandums of cooperation in the fields of space and satellite technologies with the Chinese company Geespace.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The signing ceremony for these two memorandums took place at the Abdelatif-Rahal International Conference Center (CIC) in Algiers, following the “African Telecommunications Day,” held alongside the 4th African Startup Conference, in the presence of the Minister of Post and Telecommunications, Sid Ali Zerrouki, and the Chinese Ambassador to Algeria, Dong Guangli.<\/p>\n

The first agreement, signed by ATS General Director Toufik Hentabli and Geespace CEO Wang Yang, concerns the development, manufacture, and deployment of IT devices connected to satellites, aimed at enhancing Algeria\u2019s capabilities in this domain.<\/p>\n

It focuses on two major points: the establishment of a satellite manufacturing factory in Algeria, thus creating the industrial base required for national and regional capacities. The second part of this agreement aims to create a satellite-dedicated center involving applications, innovations, and sustainable local resources.<\/p>\n

The agreement allows for “discussions on commercial principles as well as potential terms and conditions for an investment and operational project of satellite solutions in Algeria, which will be based on several fundamental phases, the completion of which will follow a sequential complementarity,” according to explanations given by ATS officials (a subsidiary of the Algeria Telecom group) on this occasion.<\/p>\n

“This collaboration could also extend to other regions in Africa depending on the future evolution of business, starting from Algeria,” they added.<\/p>\n

Regarding the second agreement, it was signed by ASAL General Director Azzedine Oussedik and the CEO of the Chinese company. This agreement aims to strengthen cooperation in the manufacture of low-orbit satellites, enabling Algeria to position itself as a leader in Africa in the space sector.<\/p>\n

At the conclusion of the signing ceremony, the Minister of Post and Telecommunications emphasized the importance of these two agreements, which aim “to increase national capacities, stimulate innovation, and enable Algeria to become a continental leader in the space field.”<\/p>\n

It is to be noted that Geespace Technology Company Limited, operating in the field of space and satellite technologies, is a subsidiary of the Chinese Zhejiang Geely Holding Group.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
