On 27.03.2025, innovative municipalities from Germany and the Netherlands will meet in Leer to inspire each other and learn from one another.
Intermunicipal "bijeenkomst" on the topic of digitalization
Exchange of experience between German and Dutch municipalities
Practice - Strategy - Networking - Exchange.
Following the numerous positive feedback after our first event in 2024, we – that is the companies JCC Software GmbH, PICTURE GmbH and SmartDocuments – would like to cordially invite you again in 2025 to the German-Dutch exchange on various areas of administrative digitalization.
Under the motto “interkommunales bijeenkomst”, innovative municipalities from Germany and the Netherlands will meet in the beautiful town of Leer (East Frisia) to inspire each other and learn from one another. Digitalization projects and ideas will be presented through lectures based on municipal practice. However, there will also be plenty of time for informal exchange and joint networking.
We will take ample time for you and the joint exchange. Please note that, for this reason, we have limited the number of participants to a maximum of 30. We therefore recommend that you secure your place as soon as possible!
