The Algerian Investment Promotion Agency participated in the Euro-Mediterranean Seminar on Cluster Policies (Maghreb edition), held on March 25, 2026, in the Tunisian capital. The agency was represented at the event by Rabah Zenir, Director of the Decentralized One-Stop Shop in Annaba, where the seminar provided a platform for the exchange of expertise between decision-makers, international experts, and representatives of clusters from both sides of the Mediterranean.
The event highlighted the role of these clusters in stimulating industrial development and enhancing economic competitiveness. Discussions focused primarily on supporting and financing innovation, developing joint investment mechanisms, and strengthening the link between scientific research and the industrial sector. The seminar also included specialized sessions and workshops in the fields of industry, digital transformation, and green energy, resulting in a set of practical recommendations to support cluster policies in the region.
This event is part of the growing dynamics of Euro-Mediterranean cooperation, particularly within the framework of the EuroMed Clusters Forward (ECF) initiative supported by the European Union, which aims to promote innovation and the integration of regional value chains. Through this participation, the Algerian Investment Promotion Agency confirmed its commitment to supporting the development of cluster ecosystems in Algeria and enhancing the creation of local and regional value chains to drive sustainable economic growth.
