Agenda
Programme sessions for Megawatt Morocco
The programme below is published in full rather than as a list of highlights: every session with its time, hall and speakers, so a visitor can build a day around it.
The exhibitor directory and this programme are currently the 2026 Accra edition, shown here while the Morocco 2026 line-up is being confirmed. The programme itself carries that notice at the top, so nobody mistakes the Accra sessions for Casablanca’s.
