Madrid - May 2, 2025 - (MAP) - Morocco's assets and the substantial investment opportunities in various sectors were presented on Tuesday in Madrid at the "Morocco Now" conference, held under the theme "Investing together for a sustainable, shared future".
This high-level meeting, which brought together major economic players from public and private sectors of both countries, enabled the Moroccan delegation to highlight the reforms undertaken by the Kingdom, high-potential business sectors and concrete projects likely to fuel mutually beneficial partnerships.
Organized by the Ministry of Investment, Convergence and Evaluation of Public Policies, in partnership with the Moroccan Agency for the Development of Investment and Exports (AMDIE), this meeting is part of the national strategy to boost the Kingdom's attractiveness to foreign investment, particularly from European partners, through highlighting its economic assets, political stability and commitment to sustainable growth.
This economic mission is of strategic importance in strengthening relations between Morocco and Spain, a historic partner and key ally. It illustrates the shared willingness to promote bilateral cooperation, by positioning Morocco as a benchmark regional platform for foreign direct investment (FDI), according to the organizers.
On this occasion, Spain's Secretary of State for Trade Amparo López Senovilla said the event illustrates the strategic importance of relations between Morocco and Spain, and the commitment of both countries to further promoting mutual trade and investment.
In this regard, she recalled that the 12th Morocco-Spain high-level meeting, held on February 2, 2023 in Rabat, reaffirmed the two countries' shared commitment to deepening this cooperation, by mapping out a roadmap in key areas such as economy and sustainability.
For his part, Karim Zidane, Minister Delegate to the Head of Government, in charge of Investment, Convergence and the Evaluation of Public Policies, called on Spanish companies to seize the many investment opportunities offered by Morocco, particularly in strategic sectors such as aeronautics, renewable energies, automobiles and electronics.
"Morocco is standing out as a preferred investment destination, thanks to its world-class infrastructure, a young and highly qualified workforce, and the many investment opportunities it offers in several strategic sectors," he said.
The event was attended by prominent Moroccan and Spanish institutional figures, including the President of Morocco’s General Confederation of Enterprises (CGEM) and his Spanish counterpart, as well as the President of the Morocco-Spain Economic Council (CEMAES).
