FERM 2024 | Message from the Deputy Mayor of Strășeni Municipality, Ion SCOBICI
100 economic opportunities for the development of the Moldova Region on the A7 Highway route
After the completion of the XVIII edition of the Moldova Regional Economic Forum, held from July 4-6, 2024, in Vatra Dornei, the Center for Analysis and Regional Development Planning (CAPDR) initiated a process to collect feedback from participants to evaluate the event’s impact and utility.
In this regard, a set of three essential questions was formulated to provide a clear perspective on the benefits obtained by participants and to identify their needs for future editions of the Forum.
The first question focuses on the overall assessment of the utility of participating in the Moldova Regional Economic Forum 2024, asking participants to describe the new information or relationships acquired and to explain how these will be applied in the development of the communities they represent. This reflects the organizers’ interest in understanding the direct impact of the event on regional development and local initiatives.
The second question concentrates on identifying the type of support or resources that participants would consider useful from the organizers to support their regional development efforts. Through this question, the CAPDR aims to improve the quality and relevance of the support offered in future editions of the Forum.
In light of the decision to organize all future editions of the Forum exclusively in Vatra Dornei, under the name “Moldova Regional Economic Forum from Vatra Dornei,” participants were also asked whether they are interested in participating in the XIX edition, scheduled for 2025, and what suggestions they have for improving the event. This question seeks to involve participants in the planning and optimization process of the Forum, thus ensuring active participation and increased relevance of the event.
These questions reflect the CAPDR’s effort to align the Regional Economic Forum Moldova with long-term strategic objectives in the context of regional development and European integration, with a reference horizon set for 2030.
Deputy Mayor of Strășeni Municipality, Ion SCOBICI
What do you consider the utility of your participation in the Moldova Regional Economic Forum 2024? What new information or relationships have you gained, and how do you intend to apply them in the development of the community you represent?
In this way, I sincerely thank you for the invitation to participate in the Moldova Regional Economic Forum 2024. We appreciate the opportunity to be part of this important event and are thrilled to contribute to the discussions and initiatives aimed at regional development. We look forward to collaborating and exchanging ideas that will support the progress of our community.
Our participation in the Moldova Regional Economic Forum 2024 was extremely valuable for the development of our community. We had the opportunity to interact with experts and opinion leaders from various fields, which allowed us to gain updated and relevant information about trends and opportunities in community infrastructure, attracting investments, and business development. We intend to apply this information by implementing innovative strategies in the development of our community’s infrastructure, expanding and modernizing sports infrastructure, and supporting local entrepreneurship. Additionally, we will explore new investment opportunities and partnerships to enhance the social sphere of our community.
What type of support or resources would you like to receive from the Forum organizers to support your regional development efforts?
To support our regional development efforts, we would appreciate the organizers’ support in several forms. Firstly, having access to networking platforms and ongoing collaboration opportunities with investors and experts in infrastructure development and business would be useful. Secondly, organizing training sessions on specific topics, such as attracting investments and developing sports infrastructure, would be of great help. Additionally, facilitating access to financial resources and information about grants and European funds for the development of our community would be extremely valuable.
Are you interested in participating in the XIX edition in 2025, and what suggestions do you have for improving the event?
We are very interested in participating in the XIX edition of the Moldova Regional Economic Forum from Vatra Dornei in 2025. We believe this platform continues to be essential for regional development and for establishing strategic partnerships. To improve the event, we would suggest including dedicated sessions specifically focused on the development of sports and social infrastructure, which are particularly relevant for us. Additionally, organizing matchmaking meetings between local authorities and potential investors would facilitate direct collaborations. Furthermore, greater exposure of successful regional projects and case studies could provide valuable models and inspiration for others.
