Morocco is acting on several levers to assert itself in the aeronautics sector and in turn attract European aeronautics companies, particularly French ones. The kingdom relies above all on a highly qualified workforce and high-level technical skills. In this sense, it has established a talent pool. It offers its talents (engineers, technicians and professionals) experienced in the task, to propel the French aeronautics industry to new heights, but also to somewhat resolve the talent crisis which particularly affects Europe.

Stressing that Morocco benefits from a significant young population (15-24 year olds represent more than 16% of the population), Maria El Filali, general director of the Moroccan Aeronautical and Space Industries Group (GIMAS), assures that this youth constitutes a valuable resource to meet the growing needs of the aviation industry in a country where the high unemployment rate among young people has reached 30% for those under 25, reports Hespress.

Thanks to these assets, Morocco attracts French companies and forms international partnerships.
