March

2017

After the successful launch of the European Enterprise Promotion Awards (EEPA) 2017 last week on February 23, it is time to introduce to you to some very important people who make it all possible…the EEPA 2017 National Coordinators! The coordinators are the national contact points across all member states and participating countries, who coordinate national EEPA activities and lead the national promotion campaigns.

How can the National Coordinators help me?

The National Coordinators can help by providing support with deadlines, applications and preparation, as well as give examples from previous years. They are there to help you be the strongest EEPA 2017 competitors, so use them!

Who should contact the National Coordinators?

Anyone from a participating country that is thinking of participating or just looking for more information about EEPA, can contact their National Coordinator.

Where can I find them?

National Coordinators are usually representatives of ministries or national business agencies. Below, you may find the list of websites for each country and a corresponding National Coordinator´s email (“NC” > right click > copy email address; we don´t want them to be spammed :)).

Dear Mr. Mikulic,
the entry to EEPA is open to all EU countries as well as countries who’s governments are full participants in COSME (Programme for the Competitiveness of Enterprises and Small and Medium sized Enterprises).
Bosnia and Herzegovina signed the International Agreement on 2 June 2016 which has not entered into force yet. As soon as it comes into force (exact date still unknown) then it will be eligible for EEPA.
Please check our website, perhaps you will be able to participate in 2018!
Best wishes,
EEPA Comms team
