Rabat – Moroccan legal tech startup Charikaty has secured a MAD 1.5 million investment during Season 3 of “Qui Veut Investir Dans Mon Projet?,” Morocco’s leading startup investment show broadcast on national channel 2M.
The investment came from two prominent business leaders, Ilan Benhaim, co-founder of European e-commerce company Veepee and Chairman of Endeavor Morocco, and Karim Amor, President of MeM by CGEM and founder of Epineon.ai. Both investors decided to back Charikaty after a pitch highlighting the platform’s growth, market potential, and long-term vision, according to a statement from the startup.
Charikaty was founded by Amr Mouaqit (CEO) and Driss Sijelmassi (COO). The company focuses on simplifying business creation in Morocco.
Starting a company in the country often involves complex paperwork and long administrative procedures, Charikaty said, explaining that they offer fully digital services that handle legal structuring, documentation, and government registration. The goal is to turn a process that can take weeks into a faster, more transparent online experience, said the statement.
Morocco registers more than 90,000 new companies each year. At the same time, the government is promoting digital transformation through its “Maroc Digital 2030” strategy. Charikaty aims to position itself as key digital infrastructure for entrepreneurs by providing company formation services, as well as company modifications, dissolution, trademark registration, and ongoing legal compliance.
Charikaty joined the first batch of the Plug and Play & Technopark Morocco Accelerator earlier this year. The three-month program included workshops, mentorship, and more than 230 investor meetings. CEO Amr Mouaqit also presented the company’s vision to Amal El Fallah Seghrouchni, Morocco’s Minister of Digital Transition and Administration Reform.
“Every year, tens of thousands of Moroccans take the leap to start a business. Our job at Charikaty is to make sure the legal process never stands in the way of that ambition,” Mouaqit said in a statement on the achievement.
He added that this investment “validates that Morocco is ready for a new standard in how businesses are created and managed.”
Charikaty plans to use the new funding to improve its technology, expand across the country, and grow its services for entrepreneurs, SMEs, and Moroccans living abroad.
