The partnership programme brings together operators and increases cooperation

The operations of the partnership programme are based on open dialogue which challenges existing ways of thinking, produces up-to-date information, shares successful practices and further develops the operations. The partnership programme creates shared forums which enable open discussions and combines the latest knowledge with the practical know-how of professionals.
