In a rolling programme of activities, designed to highlight the added value of their regions and cities within Europe, each office will open its doors for 3 days to welcome visitors from the European Parliament, regional and local authorities, journalists, representatives from companies and civil society organisations. In addition to presentations of innovative best practice that are unique to each city and region, and more general introductions to the activities of each office, Capital Cities/Regions will place particular focus to the themes of the regional competitiveness and employment.
