I was excited to open a new beautiful cafeteria at EU Social 🇪🇺 yesterday. Every organisation needs a space where people can take a break and have a fresh cup of coffee (or lemonade!), and now we have it in our building. Just a reminder - no cappuccino after noon, please! 🙂☕

A great start of the trip to Silesia🇵🇱 Connecting with partners & EU projects: 🔹 Visits to Angelic Support at House of Guardian Angels & Nikiszowiec Just Transition Centre 🔹 Talks with Marshal Wojciech Saługa 🔹 Meeting with regional leaders for further collaboration #EUFunds

The impact of #EUFunds is clear in Silesia 🇵🇱 With €65/month per child, EU support covers education, healthcare, and more—helping projects like House of Guardian Angels provide children secure & supportive environments. Investing in communities is investing in Europe’s future.

🇪🇺🇵🇱 Since 2004, Poland's EU membership has led to profound changes. Silesia is a great example of a coal-mining area evolving into a tech hub. Glad to join the Congress of SMEs in Katowice to discuss how AI, skills, social dialogue and ESF support make Europe more competitive.
