In the midst of their last meeting in June, Israeli Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked and her Moroccan counterpart, Abdelouafi Laftit, discussed the possible recruitment of Moroccan workers in Israel for construction and nursing sectors under bilateral agreements.
The discussion follows a conference held a month ago in Casablanca, which brought together entrepreneurs and investors in the high-tech industries of the two countries.
The conference aimed to promote cooperation between the industries of both countries as Morocco’s high-tech industry shows impressive growth and promising signs of development.
However, a total of 13 memorandums of understanding have been signed between companies and government agencies, committing to explore opportunities in various areas such as agriculture and water technology, logistics, and human resources.
The idea is to address Israel’s lack of technological talent by bringing in Moroccan engineers and developers.
Ghita Mezzour, Morocco’s digital transformation minister, has assessed that the country can benefit from all of Israel’s expertise in developing its own startup ecosystem.
“We have so much to learn from Israel. We have a lot of young people trained in IT and we have a lot to offer. We are also one of the leading IT outsourcing destinations in Africa and we could become a research and development hub for Israel,” added Ghita Mezzour.
Morocco’s Minister of Trade and Industry, Ryad Mezzour, said along with his colleagues that Morocco has a great opportunity to learn how to move forward from one of the most innovative countries in the world.
