The event was attended by the President of the Republic of Mozambique, Daniel Francisco Chapo, who is currently in Italy for official visits and to promote investment opportunities in the country.<\/p>\n<p>The roundtable brought together many of Italy\u2019s largest companies in sectors including energy, engineering, construction, logistics, technology, agro-industry, and innovation. The event featured an exchange of experiences and presentations on opportunities in the Italian market. Mozambique is currently one of the main destinations for Italian investments in Africa. Companies such as ENI and Saipem have played a central role in Mozambique\u2019s energy sector, with particular focus on the Coral North FLNG project, whose total investment exceeds $7.2 billion. Other important Italian companies \u2014 including Baker Hughes, Renco, CMC Ravenna, Inalca, Ecolibri, and Donelli \u2014 operate in sectors such as energy, construction, food industry, logistics, sustainable technologies, and projects with significant socio-economic impact.<\/p>\n<p>Mauriello (Assocamerestero): Supporting companies through our network<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday\u2019s meeting with the President of Mozambique is a great opportunity for Italian companies, both medium and large-sized, participating in the business meetings, as well as for the many small and micro enterprises in the supply chain that do not operate directly abroad but could certainly benefit from increased Italian presence and investments in Mozambique, which is surely one of the most interesting countries for us within the Mattei Plan,\u201d said Domenico Mauriello, Secretary General of Assocamerestero, in an interview with 9Colonne.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the network of Italian Chambers of Commerce abroad, we are at the forefront of supporting companies in this push towards Sub-Saharan Africa,\u201d Mauriello continued. \u201cOur commitment is demonstrated by the recent creation of a new area within the association called Africa and Gulf, aimed at facilitating smoother and more immediate relations between the various Chambers of Commerce in Africa, both North Africa, closer to us through the Mediterranean, and Sub-Saharan Africa, as well as the Gulf region, which is increasingly interested in Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur mission,\u201d Mauriello concluded, \u201cis precisely this: to accompany our companies, regardless of size, in understanding and exploiting the great opportunities the market offers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Santi (Chamber of Commerce): Teamwork is working<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMozambique has a privileged relationship with Italy and Italian companies: the coordinated work with the two embassies, Confindustria, Assafrica, and the Italian Chamber of Commerce shows that this teamwork is working and once again positions Italy as the top foreign investor in Mozambique,\u201d said Simone Santi, President of the Mozambique-Italy Chamber of Commerce, speaking at the roundtable organised today in Rome.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMozambique is a growing country, with a young new President and a technically prepared government implementing a reform plan that will help change the mindset of some entrepreneurs who think investing here is risky,\u201d Santi concluded. \u201cIt represents an opportunity for all Italian companies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Silli: Strengthening partnership for shared growth<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur presence here reflects how strategic we consider the strengthening of the partnership between Italy and Mozambique, within the framework of the Mattei Plan. The visit of the Mozambican President confirms the importance of cooperation in this anniversary year,\u201d said Giorgio Silli, Undersecretary of State for Foreign Affairs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA cooperation framework agreement is being finalised,\u201d Silli noted. \u201cThis roundtable is not just an institutional meeting but an opportunity for new ideas and projects.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Silli, \u201cThe potential is enormous. We want to support our companies in Mozambique, foster the development of the country\u2019s industry, and strengthen inclusive growth. Data show we are on the right track: trade has increased.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reforms in Mozambique are moving in the right direction,\u201d Silli emphasised. \u201cWe must build the future together. We support the country\u2019s efforts to manage the currency crisis and want to expand cooperation across various productive sectors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Undersecretary added that \u201cthe energy sector is one of the pillars of the partnership, along with the role of the private sector. Italy has chosen to accompany this journey, and we are ready to contribute in infrastructure as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMozambique can and must become a hub for the entire region, and our productive system is ready to contribute. Another strategic sector is agriculture. Italy is ready to offer technology and know-how,\u201d Silli concluded. \u201cCooperation can also grow further in security and defence. Our diplomatic representation and Chamber of Commerce are particularly active in the country; promoting shared growth is the right path.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"ap-article-footer-note\">Find more news and analyses on <span class=\"ap-highlight-country\">Mozambique<\/span> on the <span class=\"ap-highlight-brand\">Africa Press<\/span> website<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
