This conference is organised by the iEER project, in cooperation with the European Committee of the Regions. iEER is an Interreg Europe funded flagship project bringing together 10 regions around Europe. Initiated by a group of regions awarded with the EER label and led by the Helsinki-Uusimaa region, iEER has been aiming to define smart paths and solutions to boost regional entrepreneurship ecosystems supporting young entrepreneurs. The project has come to its midpoint and on 22–23 March 2018, the participating regions will present their findings and launch the action plans based on the work carried out during the last two years.

The event will bring together actors from across Europe to share their experience and good practices regarding entrepreneurial regions' development and will also look into how to implement these practices in a different territory. Concrete steps and transferable good practices from around Europe will be presented.  Participants will leave with ideas on how to improve their regional support for startups and entrepreneurs and how to utilize the European structural funds therein.
