Study n°22: Towards a Mediterranean Tourism Brand
Tourism is one of the major axes of the development strategies of Mediterranean countries. One can imagine the creation of a “the Mediterranean” which develops the national potentials, but also sell the region as a whole. The final objective of this study is to set the bases to establish a strategy based on a clear positioning of Mediterranean specific products of the Mediterranean, and the creation of “the Mediterranean” mark for tourist products.

Study n°21: The Mediterranean between growth and revolution - Foreign direct investment and partnerships in the MED countries in 2010
Caught between two crises (the world economic storm of the 2008-2009 and the Arab revolutions of early 2011), in 2010 the southern rim of the Mediterranean experienced a transition year marked by good achievements in terms of foreign direct investment (FDI) attraction and international partnerships. 826 FDI projects of were announced in 2010, against 542 in 2009, that is +52%. The increase is less marked in terms of amounts: €33.2 billion against €28.4 billion in 2009, that is +17%. The international partnerships of companies continue for their part their increase: 493 projects in 2010, against 288 in 2009 (+71%). In 2010, the FDI created nearly 175 000 direct jobs (against 93 000 in 2009), and approximately 585 000 indirect jobs, that is more than 750 000 jobs on the whole.
In spite of these strong achievements, the model of development of the Mediterranean countries partners of Europe appears disputed, through the changes in progress in particular in North Africa (Tunisia, Egypt, Libya): the dividends of the economic liberalisation hardly profit the whole population and are accompanied by adverse effects (strong concentration of the FDI on certain spaces, reduced local value added, sometimes negative impact on the environment or the culture, ousting of certain domestic companies to the profit of foreign operators etc). A model of development creating even more jobs, reinforcing the local industrial fabric, giving more importance to the initiatives of the South, better respecting social responsibility criteria, developing all the territory and population, still largely remains to be built…

Study n°20: Diasporas: Pathways to investment, entrepreneurship and innovation in the Mediterranean
Mobilisation of the higly-skilled Diasporas is the new economic challenge for MED countries if they wish to accelerate their economic development in the context of globalisation. For most of the countries forming the MED region, it represents a "win-win" option, which could enable them to increase their sources of external revenues, to benefit from a multi-skilled human capital with a dual culture, and finally to attract more investment projects - initially modest but with a high added value and job prospects (ICT, renewable energy, agribusiness, etc.). A directory containing 470 networks of talents from the Mediterranean diaspora has been put together and complements the study.
Based on the Chinese and Indian models which have widely used their skilled Diasporas to achieve their technological advances, MED countries should engage with Diasporas' talents using new types of cooperation, more pragmatic and more oriented towards the creation of added value. To move beyond declarations of intentions, ANIMA and Invest in Med propose a concrete and realistic plan of actions to accelerate the engagement of Mediterranean Diasporas’ talents in favour of their countries of origin.

"Entrepreneurs' Success Stories in the Mediterranean"
ANIMA Investment Network launches a new brochure, with the European Investment Bank and the European Commission (the Directorate-General for Enterprise and Industry), which gathers a collection of success stories highlighting the assets and potential of the Euro-Mediterranean.

This brochure, published in the framework of the Invest in Med programme, was presented during the 9th FEMIP conference on Monday 30 May 2011 in Casablanca.

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
