The Innovation and Networks Executive Agency (INEA) will organise a Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) Telecom virtual Info Day on Tuesday 28 February 2017 to outline the four priorities of the first 2017 CEF Telecom call of 2017.  

The Virtual Info Day will present the funding opportunities for:

The event will also explain the policy context of the calls. It will give information about the evaluation process and will provide valuable tips & tricks on writing a good proposal.

Interested stakeholders are advised to already mark the date and time in their agendas and to regularly monitor the event page and @inea_eu or the hahstag #CEFTelecomDay on Twitter for updates. The webstreaming links as well as the procedure for the Q&A sessions will be published at a later stage.
