Innovative Services for International Talents – Easier Access to the Central Baltic Sea Region
The aim of the project “Innovative Services for International Talents – Easier Access to the Central Baltic Sea Region (EXPAT)” was to develop a common platform for providing innovative services to increase the interaction among the expats, locals and private and public service providers.
