Speaking at the inaugural ceremony of this forum, which runs until May 25, Azoulay said it is a completely new business model that Israel has decided to offer Morocco. And to note that it is first of all an educational exercise to understand the right measure of innovation in the dynamics of development.
“The success of the Israeli model in technology and innovation will have meaning for us only if we draw lessons that will allow us to exist fully in this world that faces multiple changes and transformations that are taking place before our eyes,” said Azoulay.
At the same time, the Advisor to HM the King stressed that the partnerships between Morocco and Israel, and the innovations that emanate from them, “will help us to ensure that in the Middle East, Israelis and Palestinians find the path of serenity, coexistence and sharing.”
He called for never losing sight of our heritage, both moral, political, historical and the responsibility to stay the course on the objectives, values of shared dignity, freedom, sovereignty and justice.
Azoulay further explained that Morocco is one of those rare countries that consider that their own dignity is complete only when it is shared with partners or those who are of the same universe, adding that the values of peace and stability advocated by the Kingdom are the consensus among leaders and all Moroccan citizens.
Expressing his unwavering optimism about the development of Morocco, Azoulay said he was convinced that when tomorrow “my children and my grandchildren will talk about Morocco, it will be a country that plays in the big league” thanks to its partnerships that give him the opportunity to enter the world of excellence and performance.
Initiated jointly by Start-Up Nation Central and Consensus Public Relations, this Forum is a unique event bringing together Moroccan and Israeli leaders, from the private and public sectors, around the theme of technological innovation in the fields of agri-food, water, logistics, energy and sustainable development.
On this occasion, 13 memorandums of understanding (MoU) relating to the development of innovative solutions were signed by the Moroccan and Israeli parties to strengthen business to business (B2B) activities between economic and commercial operators of the two countries and those between government entities.
