The North Africa Middle East Initiative of German Business (NMI) is dedicated to fostering the bilateral business ties between Germany and the Middle East & North Africa (MENA). Similar to the Asia-Pacific Committee of German Business (APA) and the German Eastern Business Association (OA) within the Federation of German Industries (BDI), the North Africa Middle East Initiative of German Business is a part of regional initiatives, which shapes the economic and political discussion concerning trade and investment in MENA region.[1]
NMI bundles economic concerns of German companies of various sizes and sectors in the MENA region. It therefore pools regional activities and coordinates communication of interests of its member associations and companies vis-à-vis the German government, the European Union and the MENA countries. It builds on the expertise and the network of its five member organizations and offers its consultative support in issues relating to economic policies, market access, foreign trade and investment. NMI further provides a broad variety of networking platforms (business roundtables, conferences etc.) on the occasion of visits by high-ranking government and business representatives in Germany and the MENA region.
