Mediterranean Business partnerships - environment and agrofood
40 European companies participated at the two business meetings days in Marseille with promoters of 50 industrial partnership projects in Mediterranean countries (Algeria, Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia) from Agro food and Environment sectors. Hundred individual meetings took place bringing together French and entrepreneurs or experts from Mediterranean countries. More then 40% promise future negotiations. Main Mediterranean groups and SME were looking for productive and technological partnerships, and French companies managed to suggest several solutions for them. This initiative has been evaluated as good or very good by 70% of the participants and excellent by 25%. Those meetings were organized by UNIDO in Marseille in partnership with ANDI (Algeria), IDA (Egypt), AMDI (Morocco), UMAGRI (Tunisia) and, in France, ADECI and the Forum Francophone des Affaires.

Program (Previsional) |
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.
