The purpose of the Med Competitiveness initiative is to assist Egyptian, Moroccan and Lebanese SMEs to manufacture products which are compliant with European environmental directives, like RoHS (Restriction of certain Hazardous Substances), REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and restriction of Chemicals), C&L (Classification and Labelling) and thereby gain more potential in order to export to European markets.

Operations linked to the initiative

 
The Invest in Med programme aims at developing sustainable trade relationships, investments and enterprise partnerships between the two rims of the Mediterranean. Funded at 75% by the European Union over the 2008-2011 period, it is implemented by the MedAlliance consortium, which associates economic development organisations (ANIMA, leader of the programme), CCIs (ASCAME, EUROCHAMBRES), and business federations (BUSINESSMED). The members of these networks, as well as their special partners (UNIDO, GTZ, EPA Euroméditerranée, World Bank, etc.), gather a thousand of economic actors - mobilised through pilot initiatives centered on key Mediterranean promising niches. Each year, a hundred operations associate the 27 countries of the European Union and 9 Mediterranean partner countries: Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestinian Authority, Syria and Tunisia. www.invest-in-med.eu
