Regional education partnerships
On 15 October, Neth-ER together with the MBO Raad (Dutch VET Council) and the Vereniging Hogescholen (Dutch Universities of Applied Sciences)/UASNL warmly invites you to attend her event on regional innovation ecosystems and public-private partnerships. The workshop will be organized as a side event of the EURegionsWeek 2025 in Brussels.
Impacting health innovation for a competitive Europe
This workshop explores practical examples of regional collaboration between vocational and higher education (VET/HE), local governments and industry in fostering innovation ecosystems with European impact. We discuss together with expert speakers and also zoom into the health sector, through e.g. the Centre of Vocational Excellence (CoVE) EUVECA, and how these partnerships contribute to sustainable innovative growth and European competitiveness. The event finishes with a networking session. The event will be a follow-up to last year's succesful side-event on regional innovation education ecosystems and the leading role of VET/HE partnerships.
Please save the date for October 15 in Brussels, from 14:00-16:30 CEST.
More information on the programme and registration will be shared later.
