The investment week dedicated to the Moroccan diaspora in the Fes-Meknes region concluded yesterday, August 13, 2026. This significant event took place from August 10 to 13, organized by the Ministry of Investment, Convergence, and Public Policy Evaluation. It is part of a national initiative aimed at strengthening the contributions of Moroccans living abroad to the economic development of the Kingdom. This initiative served as an excellent opportunity to introduce the Moroccan community abroad to various investment opportunities available within the Fes-Meknes region, while showcasing the economic and investment potential that the local provinces and prefectures possess. Furthermore, it provided a platform to present support mechanisms and guidance essential for facilitating the realization of investment projects on the ground.
In this context, the Regional Investment Center of Fes-Meknes opened its doors to Moroccan expatriates, offering them insights into the economic capabilities of the region, available investment opportunities, as well as support mechanisms that investors can utilize to bring their projects to fruition. The week was marked by interactive meetings, diverse and rich presentations, along with specialized discussions, enabling participants to gain firsthand knowledge of the investment prospects that Fes-Meknes offers, while establishing new communication channels with relevant stakeholders and institutions.
These meetings particularly highlighted the investment opportunities in the region and the sectors with promising potential. They also addressed the support mechanisms tailored for Moroccans abroad, including the electronic services provided by the Regional Investment Center, as well as the services offered by the unit dedicated to supporting Moroccans worldwide throughout the year. Moreover, various funding and incentive mechanisms available to support the investments and projects of Moroccans abroad were discussed, enhancing investors' capacity to transform their ideas and initiatives into viable, productive projects.
Additionally, the Regional Investment Center of Fes-Meknes contributed to organizing communication meetings across different prefectures and provinces in the region on the occasion of National Migration Day. This initiative aimed to bring information and guidance services closer to Moroccans living abroad, strengthening communication with them across various areas of the region.
This initiative gained particular significance given the increasing involvement of Moroccans abroad in the national economic fabric. The week served as an opportunity to enhance communication with members of the diaspora residing abroad and to showcase the potential that Fes-Meknes offers to those interested in investing and contributing to local economic and developmental dynamics.
Various sessions throughout the week emphasized that attracting investments from Moroccans abroad is not solely about presenting available opportunities but also requires continuous and effective support, provision of accurate information, facilitation of access to funding and incentive mechanisms, and connecting investors with various relevant institutions and stakeholders.
It is anticipated that this momentum will continue throughout the year, with a specialized unit continuously providing information and guidance related to investment in the region and assisting project holders in overcoming various challenges while linking them with relevant stakeholders.
Overall, this initiative reflects the orientation of the Fes-Meknes region towards enhancing its investment attractiveness and solidifying its position as a destination capable of attracting capital and expertise from Moroccans abroad, which can contribute to job creation, stimulate the local economy, and support sustainable development in the region.
