The EMERGING Mediterranean Digital Conference is the final event of the first phase of this Mediterranean start-up acceleration programme.

The conference will be broadcast live on the web directly from the Orange Velodrome stadium in Marseille from 2 p.m. to 6.30 p.m. GMT+1 on Monday, December 14, 2020 in order to bring together the biggest stakeholders and experts in Mediterranean innovation and Tech for Good.

The EMERGING Mediterranean programme is the culmination of all the work done during the preparatory forums of the Summit of the Two Shores and is supported by the French Development Agency.

The success of the call for applications last month just goes to show how important high-impact Mediterranean start-ups (227 entrepreneurs applied) are to the programme.

10 finalists were selected from the top 30 during the 72-hour Bootcamp of the 2 Shores, a major highlight in the acceleration programme, which was held jointly in Casablanca and Marseille.

The 5 winning start-ups will be awarded their prizes during the EMERGING Mediterranean digital conference.
