In general, the project will result in strengthening ERB institutional structures by means of establishing a common cooperation platform, which will make the implementation of JTDP more coherent and in line with EU policies and programmes. With the aid of modern communication and benchmarking systems, as well as with more competent and aware politicians and personnel, ERB will be able to assist its member regions, peripheral so far, in gaining more central position in the development policies and strategies implemented in the South-East Baltic Region. The following are more detailed results:

1.) Eight reference networks of experts, politicians and ERB staff in eight JTDP activities; SMEs and innovation, rural development, tourism cooperation, transport infrastructure, social dimension, and water management, Kaliningrad hotspots, and energy forum; these eight reference networks will turn into ERB permanent cooperative structures;

2.) Eight project development teams who will submit 8 transnational project applications within the eight JTDP activities; project development teams will be temporary project-based structures, delegated ad hoc by the permanent reference networks to deal with specific problems/JTDP activities;

3.) Communication e-facility system operating in ERB regions, which will enable cost-effective and efficient way of communicating internally and externally;

4.) ERB Benchmarking Database, as an extension of the ERB website, as a technical tool facilitating the identification of problems relating to ERB JTDP and the development of projects aimed at solving these problems;

5.) One transferable model developed as a manual of the construction process of ERB, which can serve as an example of the "from vision to action approach", supported by initial political commitment, legal agreements, improved knowledge of EU Policies and finally by enhanced organisational capacities
