The second edition of the ‘Beyond Borders: Breakfast Debates’ will focus on obstacles that impact the ability of citizens who regularly travel to work in a neighbouring country. Those wishing to commute across borders should consider a variety of issues such as a lack of qualification recognition, differing taxation systems and complex administrative procedures. The session will also cover the consequences of increased labour mobility such as the potential boost in economic development in border regions. 

Join us for a morning briefing in which experts will present their insights into the topic before a moderated Q&A where you will be able to participate in the debate and share your experiences of commuting across borders.

Meet our speakers:

• Joana Bernardo, HR Manager, Venture Group - Brunswick Boat Group
• Radka Trylčová, Head Director, Pilsen Region Chamber of Commerce
• Malin Harlestad, Project Manager, City of Helsingborg
• Sigried Caspar, Policy Officer, Labour Mobility - Free Movement of Workers, DG EMPL, European Commission 
• Pascal Boijmans, Head of Unit, DG REGIO, European Commission 

‘Beyond Borders: Breakfast Debates’ is a series of online events organised by the Border Focal Point Network and is designed to highlight ways in which obstacles to cross-border cooperation can be reduced as well as to promote the pooling of services along the EU’s internal borders.
