New Interreg Programme Taking Shape

450 participants from 21 nations representing ministries, municipalities, cities, regions, counties and Baltic organisations took part in the conference, which offered practical information about the future Interreg Programme, its priorities and new project ideas.

Baltic Development Forum, having been engaged throughout the development phase of the new Interreg Programme, presented key figures from its 2006 State of the Region Report, and related it to the Lisbon Strategy under the theme „Global Challenges – Regional Solutions“. As part of a larger EU strategy for the Baltic Sea Region, Baltic Development Forum remains confident that this regional approach will lead to a healthy competitive environment and higher competitiveness and success for Europe as a whole.
