COMUNIS Inter-municipal cooperation for Strategic Steering of SME-oriented Location Development in the Alpine Space (COMUNIS)

Start date: Jun 30, 2009, End date: Jun 29, 2012,

In the Alps, the strategies of commercial development on the municipal level have been to react to single cases in the short term. A coordinated and concerted strategy using the regional and local potentials is missing. COMUNIS aims at developing a well-defined integrative and cooperative strategy for Commercial Location Development (CLD) and enhancing inter-municipal and intra-territorial coopera ...
