MESSAGE OF THE HONOURABLE PRIME MINISTER
OF THE REPUBLIC OF MAURITIUS
ROOTS OF THE FUTURE
The Indian Ocean Eden, as Mauritius is often called, is not just an enchanting mixture of coastal scenery and breathtaking landscapes.
Our country also deserves to be known for its rapid transformation from an agriculture-based society to an innovative nation fully poised to embrace the Digital Age.
The Mauritius Pavilion will show to the world how our business and tourism assets have fostered this spectacular growth. It is also an opportunity to offer a glimpse of what the future holds for our reinvented nation.
We are pleased to invite you to our Pavilion to explore the potential of our nation and understand why we are so optimistic that the future is wide open with possibilities. We also want to share with you the rich diversity and the unique blend of cultures, values and traditions that makes our Island Nation a beacon of Peace, Prosperity, Democracy and Social Inclusiveness.

Because you’ve always asked yourself if there ever exists an exemplary country that can serve as a role model to build a harmonious society in a pluralistic world living in fraternity. This idyllic land you’ve been dreaming of is right here and is about to unveil its captivating charm and irresistible beauty to you.

We are extremely proud of all the hard work our collaborators in Dubai and Mauritius have put in creating the Mauritius Pavilion, but we couldn’t have done it without the invaluable funding and unflinching support of the Government of Mauritius, of various organisations of the public and private sectors, namely the Economic Development Board Mauritius (EDB), the Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority (MTPA), the Mauritius Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCI) and Business Mauritius. THANK YOU ALL!
