The PANEL Network --- The four regions of Barcelona, Dublin, Milan and Munich represent the PANEL network. The four cities have similar profiles - all are the first or second most powerful economic centres in their respective countries. Barcelona is represented by Associació Pla Estratègic Metropolità de Barcelona which comprises city authority and municipalities, the University of Barcelona, and other business and commercial organisations. Dublin is represented by a consortium of institutions lead by the Trinity College, the partner representing Milan is the Province of Milan's Department of Economic Activities, while GründerRegio M, an umbrella body bringing together about 25 organisations from all business sectors, represents Munich.
