As part of the official visit of a Mouvement des Entreprises de France (MEDEF) delegation to Mauritius, Gilbert Espitalier-Noël, Group CEO of ENL Group, was invited to speak on a panel at the Forum d’Affaires France-Maurice « Un Héritage partagé, un Avenir prospère » held last Friday. He shared ENL’s approach to territorial development and urban resilience through the Moka Smart City master plan. Discussions between Mauritian and French business leaders focused on key strategic themes, including the blue economy, regional value chains, sustainable development, innovation, technology, and digital transformation. During the panel themed “Sustainable Development: Shared Challenges and Common Solutions for the Region,” Gilbert highlighted the Group’s experience through Moka Smart City, a model built on compact, mixed-use urban development, resilient infrastructure, and inclusive planning. He emphasised the importance of: • Long-term territorial planning supported by strong public-private collaboration • Inclusive urban integration, connecting Moka with surrounding villages through shared infrastructure and open public spaces • Delivering a holistic “Live, Work, Play” approach • Current and upcoming initiatives focused on preserving green spaces, powering common areas through solar energy, and promoting soft mobility with electric bikes His intervention reinforced ENL’s commitment to building future-fit urban environments that meet both global sustainability goals and the specific needs of the Mauritian context. #ENLgroup #EnablingPossibilities
