Permanent Table between SPRING and Regions

The Permanent Table between SPRING and the Regions was established between representatives of some Italian regions and SPRING with the aim of facilitating regular discussions between the territories.
To date, the Table is composed of fourteen Italian regions-Basilicata, Campania, Emilia Romagna, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Lazio, Liguria, Lombardy, Piedmont, Apulia, Sardinia, Sicily, Tuscany, Umbria, Veneto, and the Autonomous Province of Trento-that have committed to supporting the Cluster’s activities, reaffirming the coherence and functionality of their own development strategies and planning documents with the Association’s vision and objectives, as well as their willingness to continue in this direction by supporting activities that support the Cluster’s development and enhancement.
The Table aims to serve as a common platform for the purpose of defining shared and coordinated positions and possible lines of action on technological innovation, interregional collaboration, development policies and strategies, as well as access to regional or multi-regional programs that are co-funded at the national level and that are part of a unified Italian strategy, sharing of tools and case studies of excellence, training activities and local employment incentives in the Circular Bioeconomy sector.
