This event, was the second of its kind within this context, for it has been preceded by another communicative meeting chaired by the President of the Regional Chamber of Agriculture within Tangier-Tetouan Al-Hoceima region under the theme “Youth political participation and self-confidence”; this meeting, however, was moderated by the specialist in auditing and management control, Mrs. Farah Tamzart, assisted by her fellow contractor and association actor, Mr. Mustapha Jallab.

The meeting emphasized that young contractors must possess the minimum level of knowledge regarding their field of specialty, as well as some concepts related to the running of enterprises.

The meeting also tended to discuss strategies aimed at reducing risks related to the creation of new enterprises through loans, especially since the Coronavirus outbreak, noting that the latter shall enable young contractors to switch towards a more structured work environment, for this is strictly required to achieve industrial development.

It is noteworthy that the law on self-entrepreneurial projects was passed in January 2015, with the purpose of assisting young contractors and creating more job opportunities.

The communicative meeting was attended by a number of entrepreneurs, who gathered to discuss the conditions and measures to be taken in order to benefit from “Intilaka Program” to the fullest.

“Intilaka” program is a privileged initiative launched by King Mohammed VI in light of the parliamentary autumn session held on October 11, 2019. This program, however, does not target youth only, but also addresses the various segments of society that aspire to establish their own business.

Furthermore, Intilaka Program targets different groups such as: young graduates, project holders, self-contractors registered within Morocco’s entrepreneurship records, self-employed contractors, and people associated with small enterprises, including merchants and craftsmen, as well as peasants and farmers.

Throughout the meeting, the attendees have shown great desire to improve their experiences in their relative fields, whether contractually or professionally, for they have responded positively to the axes that were raised in this regard, in addition to presenting a series of questions and solutions to the constraints overshadowing entrepreneurial practice.
