First EUCA Network Event – Day 2 Recap | Brussels, ULB University

Following the successful launch on Day 1, the second day of the EUCA Network’s inaugural event at ULB University in Brussels continued with high energy and even deeper collaboration. Building on the solid foundation laid the day before, Day 2 focused on forward-looking strategies, project development, and strengthening partnerships across the European landscape.

Exploring Future-Focused EU Opportunities

Participants began the day by exploring upcoming trends and opportunities in the EU funding ecosystem. Expert-led sessions offered valuable foresight into emerging priorities and funding streams, equipping attendees with the tools to align their initiatives with future calls.

From Ideas to Initiatives: Concept Development in Action

🔹 The heart of the day centered around intensive group work, where participants further developed concept notes aligned with EUCA’s core policy pillars—ranging from digital transformation and sustainability to education and health. These collaborative sessions allowed for the refinement of ideas and the strengthening of inter-organizational partnerships.

🔹 Two engaging “speed dating” rounds provided additional opportunities for attendees to connect, exchange expertise, and explore synergies in a dynamic, fast-paced format. These moments proved instrumental in turning individual insights into shared strategies.

A Reflective and Purposeful Closing

The event concluded with a closing session focused on reflection and future planning. Participants shared takeaways, proposed follow-up actions, and collectively discussed how to maintain momentum beyond the event. The strong sense of community and purpose was evident as the group aligned on concrete next steps.

We are truly grateful for the energy, insights, and collaboration each participant brought to the table. Day 2 marked not only the end of the event but the beginning of new partnerships and ambitious, EU-driven initiatives.
