Swisseco 30 Promising momentum in exchanges

For the Swiss Chamber of Commerce in Morocco, the last quarter of 2023 was rich in meetings, exchanges and the sharing of experiences. From 14 to 16 October 2023, we had the honour of welcoming the official visit of Swiss Federal Councillor Mr

Guy Parmelin, who is also Head of the Federal Department of Economic Affairs, Education and Research. In this issue, you will find the highlights of this visit and, above all, an exclusive interview he gave to SWISSECO, in which he discusses, among other things, his vision of strong bilateral cooperation that holds very great promise.

We were also delighted to receive, during October, a visit from Mr Mehmet Yildirimli, Senior Consultant Africa, Türkiye & Israel at S-GE (Switzerland Global Enterprise), who opened up new prospects and opportunities to explore business partnerships between Switzerland and the African continent in particular.

The Chamber’s activity has been no less busy, with the organisation of the panel discussion on industrial decarbonisation, enhanced by the presence of the Minister of Energy Transition and Sustainable Development, Ms Leila Benali, as well as by a high-quality panel made up of companies and institutions committed to industrialisation in line with sustainability challenges. The end of this year is also marked by our traditional “Swiss Fondue” evening which, over the years, has become one of the unmissable events in the Swiss business community’s calendar.

All these events are more than just meetings. They embody our ongoing commitment to strengthening the momentum of getting to know each other better in order to work better together and create value together.

We wish you happy reading.

Christophe de Figueiredo, President of the Swiss Chamber of Commerce in Morocco
