On 27 November 2024, we brought together key stakeholders in Brussels to validate the findings of a study that is shaping our upcoming capitalisation call. During the interactive workshop, we gathered valuable input on the potential for a joint valorisation of cross-border and transnational Interreg solutions in central Europe.

The insights and results from this workshop will directly influence the priorities and design of the capitalisation call, ensuring it addresses the most pressing needs and opportunities in the region.

Held alongside the European Commission’s Harvesting Event, the workshop engaged over 90 participants, including European Commission officials, Interreg programmes representatives and regional stakeholders. Together, they explored how to maximise the impact of cooperation across the region’s 20 cross-border programmes.

Opening remarks from Ms. Christiane Breznik and Mr. Luca Ferrarese of Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE, joined by the European Commission’s Mr. Moray Gilland and Mr. Jean-Pierre Halkin, highlighted the importance of synergies in boosting the impact of Interreg projects. Interactive focus groups then helped refine the priorities and methods for the next call.

 

The call is planned to be launched in the autumn of next year.
