Our event ‘EUROPA PARCOURS: From the Blue Marble to Brussels’ offers a unique and stimulating opportunity to dive into Europe‘s cultural and EU history in the context of sustainability.
Where does the European Green Deal roadmap come from, what is it and what does it really mean?
What remains of it in view of current challenges – from CSRD to trade wars – and why is it important for regional shapers of the Alpine economy?
Do you also long to take a step back and look at the big picture?
Would you like to approach the understanding of Europe & sustainable regional development with a fresh perspective?
Initiated and led by AGORA founder and strategy expert Verena Ringler, this seminar is aimed at entrepreneurs from all sectors in the DACH-LI region who are interested in the regional and international economy and society.
