The Blue Economy WG invites members to its first meeting of the year, taking place on 3 February between 9:00-10:30. This informal coffee meeting will offer an opportunity for all WG members to come together to network and jointly kick off the WG activities for 2023.

The WG leaders will present the WG's annual work plan for 2023, which sets out the key priorities and activities for the year ahead. This will provide an opportunity for WG members to familiarise themselves with the planned activities and discuss their potential involvement in the planned work. Members' concerns and open questions around the Ocean and Waters Mission will also be discussed, as the Blue Economy WG is providing input on the Mission for ERRIN's response to the European Commission’s Horizon consultation. 

The meeting will take place at ERRIN's office, located on Rue du Luxembourg 3 (8th floor). Coffee and a light breakfast will be offered. The registration has closed. For any final registrations, please contact heidi.johansson@errin.eu.
