The Franco-Libyan Transport Forum will be held from 11 to 12 December at MEDEF’s Paris headquarters. MEDEF, the Mouvement des entreprises de France, or the Movement of the Enterprises of France, is the largest employer federation in France, established in 1998. Explaining the rationale behind the event, MEDEF says connecting territories together, organizing themselves into “platforms” located on strategic nodes of dense networks, increasingly segmented and complex, logistics and transport infrastructures are at the heart of the challenges of development and diversification of the Libyan economy. It says the forum is an opportunity to “take stock of Libyan needs in the transport sector in the broad sense and take note of current and future projects.” MEDEF said the forum will also enable a better understanding of “the expectations of the Libyan authorities vis-à-vis French companies in the transport sector/transport infrastructure.”The forum will also “promote the expertise and comparative advantages of the French offer.” Furthermore, it will help participants understand “the business environment and the operating methods of French companies in Libya.”The event is co-organised by MEDEF International in France and the General Union of Chamber of Commerce of Libya. MEDEF invited interested parties to register online before December 6.
