The number of members and the interest in membership has increased during the <\/span><\/span>Kvarken<\/span><\/span> Councils first operating year as an EGTC. The latest official new members are <\/span><\/span>Skellefte\u00e5<\/span><\/span> municipality and V\u00e4sternorrland County Council, but also a couple of development companies and a university. We saw satisfied faces during today\u2019s annual meeting on the 20th<\/span><\/span>\u00a0of May 2022. Among them Joakim Strand<\/b>, Member of the Parliament in Finland, and the Chairman of the <\/span><\/span>Kvarken<\/span><\/span> Council.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0– <\/span><\/span>We\u2019re broadening the network and getting a better contact area with the business community and the universities, which is relevant when we talk about regional development. With the accession of V\u00e4sternorrland County Council, the geography will also be expanded and give us the opportunity to further strengthen the cooperation in the region. <\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

– The connection to V\u00e4sternorrland County Council is natural because of our common world heritage and many collaborations during the years. We\u2019re well prepared for this because V\u00e4sternorrland County Council has a habit of cooperating in a Nordic context as a former long-term member of the Mid Nordic Committee, Strand continues. <\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We welcome all new members<\/strong> and note that this also increases the pressure on the services provided by the <\/span><\/span>Kvarken<\/span><\/span> Council. We\u2019ll further strengthen our office functions, primarily in Sweden.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
