The Interreg Europe project SILVER SMEs, to which Euromontana is a partner, is organising a web conference on the opportunities arising from seniors’ tourism. After having discussed healthy and active ageing and vulnerable and dependent ageing, speakers will reflect on the opportunities to develop SMEs of the Silver Economy and tourism sectors in rural and mountain areas to better meet the need of older generations.

 

About SILVER SMEs

The SILVER SMEs project aims to support regional policies in rural and mountainous areas by enlightening the potential for SMEs to develop new innovative products and services of benefit and joy for a senior population. By supporting the development of new SMEs in the Silver Economy, an intrinsic objective is to stimulate growth and competitiveness of rural areas and mountainous areas. Have a look at SILVER SMEs project’s brochure!

This 5-years Interreg Europe project was launched in June 2018. The project leader is the Spanish province of Teruel, and the other 8 project partners come from Ireland, Slovenia, Portugal, Spain, France, Sweden and Poland.

Mrs Birgitta Sacrédeus, Regional Councillor of Dalarna region, Sweden, and member of the European Committee of the Regions will also introduce the regional context of Dalarna.
