Matchmaking session

Exchange with other policymakers and experts during a two-hour matchmaking session.

Team up and discuss your policy challenge with other policymakers and our Platform experts during a two-hour meeting.

How does it work?

A matchmaking session is a two-hour in-depth discussion with a selected group of peers about your regional policy challenge, moderated by our Platform experts. 

The discussion is tailored to your policy needs and questions. We invite relevant policymakers to share their experiences. These meetings can be organised in person or online.

The matchmaking sessions are a great opportunity to meet relevant peers from other parts of Europe and find inspiration in their good practices.

Submit your request

Please note that only public bodies responsible for regional development policies can apply for matchmaking support.
