On May 9, 2022, an information event by the Cluster-Dialogs.NRW took place with Theresa Gerdes from the go-cluster program and Nina Hoppmann from the European Cluster Collaboration Platform of the European Union.

go-cluster program , the cluster policy excellence measure of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWK), presented. The initiative is aimed particularly at innovation clusters that meet the quality criteria of the European Cluster Excellence Initiative (ECEI). The core of the initiative is individual advice, various further training offers, national and international networking events and public presentation. As part of the initiative, the clusters also have the option to cover the costs of the silver label according to the ECEI criteria. The first step in the admission process is to report for a consultation.

In the second part of the event, Nina Hoppmann from the European Cluster Collaboration Platform presented the platform and the various activities. With the Cluster Map , which now includes over 1,300 international cluster organizations, the European Cluster Conference and the EU Cluster Talks, the ECCP offers NRW's clusters various opportunities to expand their own network and find international cooperation partners. The platform also makes it possible to increase the reach of your own projects and publications via the ECCP network. An interesting exchange opportunity for European clusters will be the European Cluster Conference 2022 , which will take place from 26-27. September will take place in Prague.
