Swisseco 32 Trade protection and education at the heart of CCSM news

As spring gently awakens during this holy month of Ramadan, we are delighted to share with you the news of the Swiss Chamber of Commerce in Morocco (CCSM).

In this issue, we highlight the events and initiatives that have animated the life of the CCSM in recent weeks. At the end of February, the Moroccan Minister of Industry and Trade, Mr Ryad Mezzour, did us the honour of taking part in our conference on the theme: “Trade protection: what safeguard measures to defend national production?”, during which we discussed with players in the sector the business opportunities around #MadeInMorocco, among other topics. In March, we also organised a webinar with the Moroccan Investment and Export Development Agency (AMDIE).

Staying with education and training, the Portrait in this issue traces the inspiring career of Mr Alexandre Comby, CEO of mobiletic, a learning solutions platform that aims to improve access to training for everyone.

Finally, we are pleased to offer you an interview with Mr Abdelaziz Babqiqi, Director General of the Moroccan Industrial and Commercial Property Office (OMPIC). Following the signing of the cooperation agreement on intellectual property protection between Switzerland and Morocco, he discusses the stakes, opportunities and challenges that this agreement represents for Morocco.

Last but not least, don’t miss our golfing event on 20 April 2024 at the Tony Jacklin Casablanca course, on the occasion of the Swiss Chamber of Commerce in Morocco Golf Trophy.

We wish you happy reading!

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