Description
On May 21th 2024, the Friend CCI Eurocluster brought together 20 participants from various European clusters for a communication training session specifically designed for the European CCI ecosystem.
This session provided a valuable opportunity for peer-to-peer learning and collaboration, as it was open to clusters beyond the Friend CCI partnership, including those from the Creathriv-Eu EUROCLUSTER.
Led by senior EU cluster and communication expert Lucia Seel, the training offered participants fresh perspectives and practical guidance on enhancing their communication strategies and activities.
One key takeaway resonated strongly with participants: the immense impact clusters can achieve by leveraging their network connections to bolster their cluster goals and communication strategies.
This communication training session builds upon two previous peer-to-peer interactive sessions organized for Friend CCI partners. These sessions focused on fostering knowledge exchange around cluster management practices and achieving excellence according to the European Cluster Excellence Initiative (ECEI) cluster excellence indicators. Upholding these high standards is crucial, as only excellent clusters can effectively support the resilience of their members, particularly SMEs.
Friend CCI Eurocluster is a project funded by the European Union's COSME program and aims to bolster the resilience of the European CCI ecosystem, particularly regarding green and digital transformation. The project supports SMEs within the CCI space by facilitating cross-innovation projects, skills development, and internationalization through financial and non-financial resources.
