ERNACT as part of Interreg Europe funded ENAIBLER project is excited to welcome the Regional Agency for Socio-Economic Development – Banat Ltd (RDA Banat) as a new partner. Since its founding in 2002, RDA Banat has played a pivotal role in promoting the growth and development of the Banat region, successfully delivering over 100 projects and attracting more than 20 million euros in investments from national and international funds.
With a strong focus on regional development, digital transformation, and stakeholder engagement, RDA Banat’s expertise aligns perfectly with ENAIBLER's goal of building capacity for AI adoption in the public sector. Additionally, their experience in stakeholder engagement, capacity building, and promoting digital innovation will be instrumental in driving AI-driven transformation.
In the role of a discovery partner at ENAIBLER project, RDA Banat will benefit from the exchange of experience of ENAIBLER in all ongoing activities. From the framework for context analysis and the results from the 5 regions will be shared along with good practices and capacity building and communication activities of the 8 partners.
“The vision of RDA Banat reads: "Banat belongs to the group of developed European regions", the ENAIBLER project leads us on that path. We are very pleased to have the opportunity to share experience and knowledge with the ENAIBLER team, which will help us in the further digital transformation of our region”, Irena Vukić, director of the RDA Banat.
At the end of 2023, 7 EU candidate countries joined the Interreg Europe programme: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Moldova, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia and Ukraine, offering new opportunities to the projects and Policy Learning Platform.
Since the first and second call projects were developed before these opportunities emerged, a new call allowed approved projects to extend their partnerships and collaborate with organisations from the newly added Partner States.
“Work is already underway with the RDA Banat team on sharing the approach and resources developed through ENAIBLER. I believe that they are very well placed to make the most of this exchange of experience for their own region on AI adoption and they can also bring a new perspective to ENAIBLER”, Margaret Quinn, ENAIBLER lead partner from ERNACT.
We welcome RDA Banat to the ENAIBLER project and look forward to a successful collaboration!
