The Partnership’s 2nd Symposium brought together over 100 participants, including co‑funded projects, policymakers, industry representatives, funding organisations, and members of the Black Sea community.

Panel discussions, artistic and cultural elements, and dedicated spaces for research and innovation projects highlighted both achievements and opportunities for collaboration. After the programme, attendees joined a networking reception.

The event aimed to:

• Raise visibility of the Partnership’s activities and funding opportunities.
• Showcase ongoing projects and support the scaling of their innovations.
• Foster private‑sector engagement in research, innovation, and market uptake.
• Highlight the Partnership’s pan‑European, sea‑basin approach, with a particular focus on the Black Sea.

Participants also had the opportunity to explore the project poster exhibition and the artistic installation displayed throughout the day.
