The Öresund Region is 10 years old. How do you intend to celebrate?
2010 marks the tenth birthday of the Öresund Region. Almost a decade has passed since the opening of the bridge between Sweden and Denmark heralded the birth of our trans-national region. Since then old obstacles have been dismantled, new opportunities have arisen, and today an expansive region has become a reality. These are all achievements that we are eager to celebrate.
Well-attended Brussels conference for experts on taxation and social insurance issues in European border regions

The conference was aimed for experts on taxation and social insurance and was held in Brussels on Friday, 23 October 2009.
