Some feedback from the reports 2009 Ole Wolf, Project Manager of the Cultural Department of the Municipality of Horsens, Denmark: We visited Tallinn (Estonia), Jurmala (Latvia) and Vilnius (Lithuania). Our aim was to study the fields of creative economy development of new attractions and festivals within “experience Economy”. We have seen numerous interesting projects and seen many skilful solutions to problems we face ourselves. Even though we might not be able to copy them overnight, we now have a bank of ideas for the coming years. Hopefully we at the same time established the necessary contacts to increase networking with the Baltic Countries in the future. It was easy to apply the Programme, not the least bureaucratic. Questions were answered quickly and fulfilling.
