On the 30th March 2017 Adam Hamryszczak, Undersecretary of State in the Ministry of Economic Development of Poland and Bogdan Romaniuk, Vice-Marshal of the Podkarpackie Voivodeship solemnly opened the new premises of the Rzeszów Branch Office. 

The Branch Office in Rzeszów was established in December 2016 in order to ensure the Programme promotion and access to information for potential applicants and beneficiaries from the Polish eligible area. It implements the information and communication plan, supports the JTS/MA in the organization of significant events of the Programme in Poland (trainings, workshops, conferences, meetings etc.) as well as ensures direct, phone and e-mail consultations for beneficiaries.

- This is an important place and important moment of implementation of the Programme. In December, the 1st Call for Proposals was closed. In total, we received 749 Concept Notes concerning the natural and cultural heritage, accessibility of border area, and common challenges in the matter of security and management of borders - said Adam Hamryszczak.
