The European Cluster Collaboration Platform (ECCP), on behalf of the European Commission, in collaboration with Brainport Development, AgriFood Capital, and the Province of Noord-Brabant, is organising the Clusters Meet Regions event in Eindhoven, Netherlands, on 26–27 March 2025. As part of the ongoing Clusters Meet Regions initiative, this conference will explore how clusters can drive innovation, sustainability, and resilience within regional and European ecosystems. Participants will gain insights into Brabant’s leadership in Robotics & Artificial Intelligence (AI), Circular Semiconductors, Plant-Based Agri- & Foodtech, and Safety & Security.

Over two days, attendees will engage in panel discussions, site visits, pitching sessions, and interactive workshops. The event will bring together regional authorities, policymakers, cluster organisations, SMEs, startups, scale-ups, academic and research institutions, and industry leaders from across Europe, particularly in AI, robotics, and defence & security. Attendees will have the opportunity to build new partnerships, contribute to European Green Deal and RIS3 strategies, and explore cross-border innovation opportunities.

The conference will take place at the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven. A draft agenda is available for download on the ECCP event page, and further details, including speaker information, will be released soon.
