The Mouvement des Entreprises de France or MEDEF (in English: "Movement of the French Enterprises") is the largest union of employers in France. It was formerly known as the Conseil National du Patronat Français or CNPF (in English: "National Council of the French Employers").

Its current president is Laurence Parisot, CEO of IFOP. Previous president Ernest-Antoine Seillière had come under attack for his "arrogance"^[1] and lack of negotiation when demanding social reforms^{citation needed}. Guillaume Sarkozy, the brother of French president Nicolas Sarkozy, is a senior executive of the MEDEF.
