The Mediterranean Week of Economic Leaders, or Meda Week, has been held in Barcelona every year for approximately the past decade. The event is organised by the Association of Mediterranean Chambers of Commerce and Industry (ASCAME), Barcelona Chamber of Commerce, the Union for the Mediterranean and the European Institute of the Mediterranean (IEMed).

Some 1.500 business leaders from over 30 countries attend the three-day event, run in English and French, to take advantage of specific thematic forums.

Meda Week represents private sector initiative as a factor of economic progress, stability, peace and, in short, the development of the region. It defends the creation of a Mediterranean economic space and helps position the Mediterranean on the political agenda.

This corporate act draws leading personalities and politicians from the international, Spanish and local spheres and the media cover the region-wide prosperity proposals addressed at the event.
