Investment opportunities in Morocco as gateway to the African continent were highlighted Tuesday at the 2020 Africa Meetings (Rencontres Africa).
This two-day event — deemed the most important business event on Africa — is held alternately in France and Africa. It brings together business leaders, investors, project leaders and policy makers from over 30 countries.
This year, the Africa meetings, now in their fifth edition, were held in digital format due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“Morocco as gateway to the African continent offers significant investment opportunities,” said the President of the Region Rabat-Salé-Kénitra, Abdessamad Sekkal, who spoke during an event themed “Africa, Between Crisis and Rebound.”
“There is a strong economic dynamic that is developing in the Kingdom,” he said, showcasing the example of the Rabat-Salé-Kénitra region.
“Today, there are many foreign investors who invest in this region,” Sekkal stated, recalling that the Rabat-Salé-Kénitra region has experienced strong development in the industry sector.
“In Morocco, we are very aware today that building a new model of economic development can only be achieved by strengthening the role of territories and bringing decision-making centers closer to citizens,” he added.
Launched in 2016, the Africa Meetings aim to promote exchange, increase partnerships and discuss the conditions for accelerated growth and job creation between stakeholders in French and Africa.
