Fostering Cohesion for Impactful EU Investments

This event provides a valuable platform for knowledge exchange and innovative approaches on current challenges and opportunities in EU Funds.

Topics
  • EU budget. The role of own resources in EU financing
  • Anti-Fraud and anti-corruption in EU projects
  • Simplification of Cohesion Policy
  • Protecting public financial interests in the management of the RRF
  • Cooperate for positive impact in EU projects


Who should attend
National and Regional Authorities
  • Practitioners from Member State national, regional and local authorities from Audit, Managing and Certification authorities working with European Structural and Investment Funds as well as with the Recovery and Resilience Facility.
  • Mayors and local government officials, especially those managing cross-border or regional development projects.
  • The full range of economic and social partners working with the Funds - including universities, NGOs, employers' associations, consultants.

Private Sector Representatives
  • Private investors and companies involved in public-private partnerships funded by EU programmes.
  • Consulting firms providing expertise on compliance, management, and project implementation for EU-funded initiatives.
Aims and objectives
Effective coordination and knowledge sharing are crucial for fostering economic, social, and territorial cohesion across the European Union. Audit, Certifying, and Managing authorities as well as Intermediate bodies and other public bodies of EU Member States, along with beneficiaries of EU-funded projects, need robust mechanisms for collaboration and exchange. However, these stakeholders often lack sufficient opportunities to connect and learn from one another.

This event seeks to unite a diverse array of professionals engaged with the administration and implementation of EU Funds. It will provide a platform for the exchange of best practices, lessons learned, and innovative approaches on current challenges and opportunities.
Your benefit

  • Networking and collaboration : share experiences and connect to build strategic partnerships across different Member States.
