Do you have at least three partners from three Programme area countries ready to work together?

Does your project platform idea fit into one of these Programme objectives?

Does your project platform involve partners from at least two Interreg Baltic Sea Region projects and at least one project from another funding programme?

In addition, we encourage to adopt a broader approach by involving partners from multiple projects across various funding programmes. This approach enriches the outcomes of a project platform, enhances its value for public authorities and other relevant organisations, and aligns with the strategic importance of project platforms.
