During the discussion, good examples of cross-border cooperation were evoked, with contributions from the La Batie festival (FR/CH), the InstitutFrançais (FR), the Pyrenartplatform (ES/FR) and the SUMIcompany with an inspiring plea for the connection of culture and the economy in a cross-border context. Finally, the Flemish Minister-President JAN JAMBON and the Vice-President of the Hauts-de-France Region FRANÇOIS DECOSTER gave their vision of cultural cooperation. Moderator Steven Decraene (France expert, VRT NWS) had to cancel at the last minute due to illness and was ably replaced by Dirk Dewit of Kunstenpunt (kunsten.be).
