This conference is jointly organised by the Portuguese Presidency, and the Norte Region, the new Interreg Atlantic Area managing authority and the Green Atlantic for Sustainable Development (GASD) consortium, and marks the second major step in planning for PEMS2.
Coming a few weeks ahead of the ratification of the future European maritime policy set out in the Blue Paper, it aims to bring together under the presidency of Portugal and in the presence of the current and future authorities for the Interreg Atlantic Area programme, all the public and private-sector contributors to projects concerned with maritime and sustainability issues.
The purpose of this is to provide for the emergence of pilot projects with defining potential. Following a process of selection at technical and political levels, these projects will be GASD-approved and help to structure a competitive cluster that will be the focus of global excellence in the maritime sector.
