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