Ambassadors
The aim of ECoC programme is to empower civilians, representatives of the local governments, entrepreneurs, artists, and academics to collaborate and create a joint proposal that will make a positive move for the coming decades of Veszprém and its surroundings. We truly believe that in addition to regional professional collaboration, it is very fruitful for the ECoC programme to involve artists, experts, and sportsmen who have roots in or any private connections to Veszprém or its surrounding.
