The agenda will cover general
topics related to the presentation of the INTERREG Balkans - Mediterranean

The main challenge for PRO-ENERGY
is to improve the energy efficiency of public buildings (municipal, regional,

facilities, etc.).
It is a two-year project, and Regional
Development Agency with the Business Support Centre for Small and Medium-sized
Enterprises – Plovdiv is partnering with five other partners from Albania,
Greece and Cyprus.
Igoumenitsa is a coastal city in
northwestern Greece. It is the capital of the regional unit of Thesprotia.
Igoumenitsa is the chief port of
Thesprotia and Epirus, and one of the largest passenger ports of Greece,
connecting northwestern Mainland Greece with the Ionian Islands and Italy. The
city is built on easternmost end of the Gulf of Igoumenitsa in the Ionian Sea
and primary aspects of the economy are maritime, transport, services,
agriculture and tourism. The 670 km (420 mi) long Egnatia Highway, which serves
northern Greece, terminates at Igoumenitsa, making it a popular starting point for
tourists coming from Europe.
