Yesterday marked the official start of our training journey, and what an inspiring beginning it was! Bundesbeschaffung GmbH, ICLEI Europe, and EY Romania kicked off with a dynamic and engaging agenda at our Vienna venue, Quartier Sechs.

We were especially honored to welcome our guests from the European Commission - Blagoy Stamenov from the Contracting Authority EISMEA and Anita Poort from DG GROW, who delivered an insightful opening speech. 

A heartfelt thank you also to Martin Ledolter, Peter Kubovič, Nuno Costa and Anita Poort for their valuable contributions during our panel discussion.

We’re excited to host 44 participants from 21 European countries, along with our expert trainers, EU representatives, and partner organizations.

From hands-on sessions to expert input, the first day already sparked inspiring conversations, peer exchange, and a true spirit of collaboration in the field of public procurement.

Here’s to a successful training experience full of learning, shared expertise, and European cooperation!
