Mohamed Horani’s father was a traditional baker. At age eight, the boy stood up for himself in a family strife, taking care not to hurt anyone’s feelings. At eleven, he designed a clever process to help his father manage the increased baking demand in Ramadan. Since childhood, method, vision and humanity have been guiding the choices of a man who rose from poverty to the helm of HPS, Morocco’s most powerful multinational technology company.
