Minister of Industry and Trade Ryad Mezzour addressed attendees, emphasizing the importance of balancing trade exchanges. He urged American businesses to tap into Morocco's vast potential, encouraging them to strengthen their presence in both African and European markets. “This partnership presents numerous opportunities for growth,” Mezzour stated, pointing to the rich resources and favorable conditions available in Morocco.

U.S. Ambassador Puneet Talwar praised Morocco's stability and modern infrastructure during his speech. He specifically highlighted the significance of the Tanger Med port, which has solidified Morocco’s role as a regional economic hub. Talwar remarked, “The strong ties between our nations are reflected in our economic collaborations and shared values, setting the stage for continued success.”

The gala not only commemorated two decades of partnership but also served as a platform for networking among business leaders and government officials from both countries. With a focus on innovation and investment, the event underscored the potential for future collaboration in various sectors.
