Dear blue economy stakeholders,

DG MARE has identified smart specialisation strategies (S3) as a key tool to implement the Communication on Sustainable Blue Economy adopted in May 2021.  

Accordingly, in coordination with DG REGIO, DG MARE has recently launched the smart specialization platform for sustainable blue economy and is organising a series of brokerage events to promote smart specialisation interregional partnerships and blue economy value chains.

These events will support matchmaking activities in order to:

-          facilitate blue economy stakeholders’ networking and exchange

-          promote the definition of stakeholders’ complementarities and synergies in terms of interregional value chains/partnerships

-          support exchange of potential partnership ideas and expression of interest

-          share best practices and lessons learned on S3 interregional partnerships set up and implementation

Join us in the hybrid event, the 10th of May in Santander, focusing MARINE RENEWABLE ENERGIES. Registration link and agenda www.atlanticstrategy.eu/en/news-and-events/events/two-day-event-smart-specialisation-marine-renewable-energy

We look forward for your active participation and we kindly ask you to share this e-mail and the registration links with your network of stakeholders and project partners.
