How can EU regions develop innovative solutions and policies surrounding electric mobility and thereby ensure to be drivers of green growth? What role can flexible public-private partnerships involving SMEs, energy providers, suppliers, retailers and public bodies play?
Those and more questions were addressed last October 19th during the 2nd Regional Stakeholder Meeting conference hosted by EV Energy Partner EUR S.p.A in its facilities.

- Gain knowledge and insights about how to overcome regulatory bottlenecks for e-mobility
- Examine the role electric vehicles can play in stimulating green job opportunities
- Examine how EV producers innovate and adapt in order to limit GHG emissions through e-mobility
