Dear Members, Dear all,
In this issue, we would like first to highlight our recent Congress held in Bratislava, last August. Our particular thanks go to the Local Organising Committee for their fabulous work before and during the Congress.
We are also happy to inform you on upcoming events from our sections as well as other events of interest for our sector. We take this opportunity to underline ERSA close collaboration with INRA in organising the workshop on "Mapping smart specialisation: Do rural regions count?" to be held in Paris, next month.
Another important point relies to ERSA willingness to alert you on interesting research opportunities.

656 participants from 46 countries around the world.
Bratislava Congress was attended by a good mix-up of position’ and specialisation’ categories embracing all age generations. Like in our latest congress, PhD students were numerous and their input especially in the Young Scientists’ Sessions was very much appreciated by attendees.
