Interreg B2N NET

The B2N NET project—an acronym of "Transfer of experiences and technologies on the reinforcement of the tourism economy in natural areas through SMEs policies” —which is being financed by the European Union (1 million €), is currently at the evaluation stage; the 10 European partners involved share the overall objective of improving regional policies in protected areas, through exchanges of experience and knowledge between the regional partners of the project.

The main activities will concern organization of interregional events, such as conferences and seminars, surveys and research, and study visits. Small and medium enterprises (SME) are essential to the development of regions, both for their internal economy and for cooperation between regions; the aim of the project is therefore to improve the effectiveness of development policies, in the areas concerned, with regard to innovation, the economy, the environment and risk prevention.
