The General Confederation of Moroccan Enterprises (CGEM) and Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) signed, Monday in Casablanca, a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to promote research, industrial development, entrepreneurship as well as executive and initial training.

Signed by CGEM president Chakib Alj and UM6P president Hicham El Habti, the MoU aims to promote research and development (R&D) and innovation within Moroccan companies, particularly small and medium enterprises by establishing an optimal framework to meet the needs of the private sector in this area.

The two institutions will also join forces to bring closer members of the CGEM and the startups ecosystem of the UM6P to jointly launch specific programs tailored to the needs of Moroccan entrepreneurs.

The two bodies will promote exchange between Moroccan teachers and researchers from around the world and those of UM6P, particularly through a mentoring platform called “Mentor to Mentors.”
