About the theme

The Nordic Transition Workshop Series's fourth and last workshop is all about networking. After three successful workshops with participants throughout the Nordics and beyond, we will wrap up the series with input on how to stay connected!

 

In this highly interactive session, we will explore the success factors of collaboration across borders. Additionally, we will gain insight on the funding possibilities from three experts in the area. Lastly, we will discuss how to strengthen this community and continue the knowledge exchange.
