Potential of Rural Regions - The PURR project will research regional potential

5 stakeholders applying for ESPON research project

The PURR project appplication was submitted to ESPON yesterday. Notodden Municipality as Lead Stakeholder together with Cesis District Council, North Yorkshire County Council, Welsh Assembly Government and Dumfries and Galloway Council. The idea is to reserach the territorial potential of the areas and to build up a database. There will also be a possibilty for researching a wider area connected to the IC network and also disseminate the findings within the network.

The public Institution Baltic Innovation Group is also connected to the project and will work closely with the partners in order to establish a link between the PURR and other projects coming up through the IC network, first of all the Transinform project. The project idea was initiated by Prof. Cliff Hague and the Transinform partnership meeting in Cesis January 2008. Here are links to partners.
