Successor to El Mercantil Valenciano, founded in 1872, the Levante-EMV newspaper is the leader in both circulation and audience in the Valencian Community. Published since 1984 by Prensa Ibérica, Levante-EMV has been a pioneer in the launch of regional editions. In 1990, the Club Diario Levante was founded, a plural forum open to society to collect and reflect on the issues that most concern citizens and offer the possibility of critical and reflective debate that is later transferred to the pages of the newspaper.
