Abdou Diop was among the panelists at the "Morocco Today Forum." Mr. Africa of the CGEM participated in discussions on the roadmap to be implemented within the framework of the Royal Initiative for the countries of the Atlantic coast and those of the Sahel. His co-panelists included the ambassador and director general of the Moroccan Agency for International Cooperation, Mohamed Methqal; the Malian ambassador to Morocco, Fafré Camara; and the president of the African Chamber of Commerce and Services of Dakhla, Abdelmounaim Faouzi.

In this context, he emphasized the importance of the Forum that the CGEM will organize next December, centered on SMEs in Africa. He revealed to L’Observateur du Maroc and Pouvoirs d’Afrique that a preliminary study had been launched to examine the possible complementarities and convergences between these SMEs.
