In this issue, we look back at the Swiss Textile Machinery Symposium, organised in Casablanca by Swiss Textile Machinery (Swissmem), on the major challenges facing the textile sector. This meeting brought together Moroccan manufacturers and Swiss textile machinery players for strategic discussions and concrete cooperation opportunities, in a sector that is key to both our economies. The “3 questions for…” section extends these exchanges by giving the floor to Ms Cornelia Buchwalder, Secretary General of Swissmem.
We are also pleased to devote our Portrait section to Ms Sophie Rosman, Country Director of Swisscontact. Through her career and commitment, this portrait highlights the essential role of the bridges between economic development, skills and international cooperation.
Recent months have also been punctuated by several meetings and networking events, notably around Swiss flavours, which remind us how much moments of conviviality help to strengthen professional and human ties within our ecosystem.
At the start of this year, the CCSM wishes to extend its most sincere wishes to all its members and partners, for a year marked by cooperation, development and shared success. Our thoughts also go to the victims of the tragedy that occurred in Crans-Montana, to which the Swiss community is particularly sensitive.
Finally, as the month of Ramadan approaches, the Chamber wishes to extend its wishes of peace, serenity and solidarity to all its members.
With this new issue of SWISSECO, the CCSM continues its mission of showcasing its members, connecting economic players and promoting exchanges between Switzerland and Morocco.
We wish you an excellent read.
Happy reading to you all!
Yassin Halhoul,
President of the Swiss Chamber of Commerce in Morocco
