EU Clusters Talks: European Year of Skills: Talent for the twin transition

We invite you to join the traditional webinar by EU Clusters Talks on the topic of the European Year of Skills: the double transition.

When: 14 June 2023.

Start time: 09:30 (Kyiv time)

Duration: 1 hour 15 minutes (until 10:45)

For whom: Clusters and SMEs

The green and digital transition is expected to bring millions of new jobs. Businesses large and small need skilled people to innovate and grow. The dynamic nature of the labour market can lead to skills mismatches and shortages, which can be a major factor in unemployment. Therefore, the European Commission has launched a skills’ pact to promote joint action to maximise the impact of investment in upskilling and retraining. It calls on national, regional and local authorities, companies and education and training institutions to work together and commit to investing in training for all people of working age in the EU.

Speakers will include: 

  • Carolina Garcés, Project Manager, Mobile Heights;
  • Torsten Urban, Head of Education & Training, Lüdenscheid Plastics Institute;
  • Elin McCallum, Director, Bantani Education;
  • Delphine Descorne-Jeanny, President, Cluster NOGENTECH;
  • Vito Borelli, Team Leader, DG EAC, European Commission;
  • Katerina Nejdlova, Team Leader, DG GROW, European Commission;
  • Daniela Santopolo, Policy Officer, Joint Research Centre, European Commission.
