MEDSPARC 2025 Keynote Speech: Dr. Alaa Ezz on Bridges Connecting the Europe-Mediterranean Region
The first keynote speech at our MEDSPARC Business Summit was delivered by Dr. Alaa Ezz, Secretary General of the Confederation of European Chambers of Commerce and Industry in Africa and Board Member of the ASCAME.
In his speech, Dr. Ezz offered a valuable perspective that encourages us to rethink trade and investment in the Euro-Mediterranean region in terms of green, digital, and social transformation.
He shared concrete recommendations on topics such as the future of regional value chains, growth that considers regulatory compliance and risks, and the stronger inclusion of SMEs and women entrepreneurs in these networks.
With both his keynote speech and his contribution to the session “Trade and Investment Opportunities and Threats in the Euro-Mediterranean Region” at MEDSPARC 2025, he significantly strengthened our summit’s Euro-Mediterranean focus.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Dr. Alaa Ezz for his visionary contributions and inspiring insights,
And to the ASCAME for their strong partnership and invaluable support for MEDSPARC 2025.
