The association promoted by the Provincial Council of Bizkaia, aware of the importance of generating and developing work and collaboration networks at the international level, held a professional meeting with Basque men and women residing in the area of Copenhagen. “This is the fourth talent meeting which has taken place this year and the aim is to learn about the concerns and the situation of the Basque people who reside in the area of Copenhagen. The event was attended by 23 talents who work in various sectors and hold various degrees” Jimenez explained.

Likewise, there was an exchange of ideas about the development of the Be Basque Talent Network and about the possibilities of developing collaboration networks of professionals who are currently living in this area of Copenhagen and other professionals as well as the possibilities of their returning to the Basque Country.

The managing director explained that these meetings intend to foster and promote networks among Basque men and women who are carrying out their professional activities abroad for them to maintain a proactive and constant link with the Basque Country.
