The conference will bring together representatives of universities, regional and local authorities, cities
and municipalities, regional development agencies, chambers of commerce, business incubators,
public institutions, industrial companies, innovative SMEs, research organisations and non-profit
organisations. The event aims to create a shared platform for dialogue, knowledge exchange and
partnership building across sectors.
The main objective of the conference is to present:
- proven models of cooperation between universities, public authorities, the business sector and
other regional stakeholders, - concrete examples of successful partnerships and projects supporting regional development,
innovation and knowledge transfer into practice, - tools, mechanisms and support programmes, including funding opportunities, that effectively
foster inter-institutional cooperation.
The conference will also provide space for networking, experience sharing and the development of
long-term strategic partnerships among institutions at the regional and international level.
The event is organised within the WIDE AcrossEU project, funded by the Horizon Europe programme. Speakers will include experts and practitioners from selected European regions (including Finland and Sweden) as well as representatives of Technology Centre Prague, the national information centre for European research and Czech participation in EU Framework Programmes.
Participation
Participation in the conference is free of charge. Participants are expected to cover their own travel
and accommodation costs.

regional innovation ecosystems through effective collaboration.
