Algeria is turning to its growing start-up ecosystem to help modernize its infrastructure and strengthen national innovation.

On July 9, the government created a joint commission linking the Ministry of Public Works and Basic Infrastructure with the Ministry of Knowledge Economy, Start-ups, and Micro-enterprises. The goal is to involve start-ups in designing and executing large-scale infrastructure projects.

The collaboration aims to build a structured framework for start-ups to contribute to projects in railways, guided transport systems, and smart construction site management.
