BUSINESSMED, represented by Mr. Marco Cunetto, Program & Internationals Affairs Manager, attended the Eu4Youth meeting, organized by the Union European Delegation in Tunisia with the support of EU Neighbours South, on May 13^th2017, in Pavillon Soukra, Tunis.

The meeting was focused on 3 main themes: Innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship. This last gathered 200 young people who took part to discussions and constructive debates.

The ambassador of the European Union in Tunis, Mr. Patrick Bergamini, inaugurated the opening session by wishing to the young entrepreneurs a professional career full of success, adding that “Tunisia has changed, it is moving forward. And it chooses the European Union as a strategic partner.”

BUSINESSMED’s commitment has a real synergy with the implication of the European delegation for the promotion of peace, stability and economic prosperity in the South Mediterranean region. This participation matches to the organization’s involvement to the main key-themes involving civil society empowerment in the Southern Neighborhood.

In that sense BUSINESSMED took part in 2 Annual Civil Society Fora of Southern Neighborhood, in Tunis (April 2017) and Brussels (July 2017) respectively. This involvement is reinforced by BUSINESSMED’s interest to economic inclusion and youth integration issues across the Mediterranean Region.
