The aim of the conference was to bring together stakeholders at regional, national and transnational level with each other and with representatives of local innovation and ecosystems in various formats, thus actively contributing to shaping a greener and more sustainable future, with a focus on European professional excellence and initiatives to develop green skills. Lectures and workshops were offered on topics such as ‘Europe’s competitiveness through the qualification of the labour force in future topics such as sustainability and green skills’. The participants also visited the GREENOVET project partners  HTL BULME<\/a>, Wifi Steiermark Talent Center<\/a> and TU Graz<\/a>, among others.<\/p>\n
