Skopje,  Friday 19 November 2010

As part of its activities in the WBC-INCO.NET project,  SBRA is organising in the month of November a training seminar on successful participation in FP7. In line with the terms of reference, the workshop is to be freely offered to representatives of business, academic institutions, local communities, and NGOs, from countries of South Eastern Europe – beneficiaries of the EU-funded project mentioned above.

The event is co-organized by ECPD Regional Institute for development studies in Skopje, and the Economic Chamber of Macedonia, which is also hosting the event at its premises in Skopje at Dimitrije Čupovski 13. The working language will be English. As organisers, we recommend that primarily people with solid command of English language take part in the workshop for the sake of terminology which they need to be able to prepare a successful project submission.
