The Conference of Peripheral Maritime Regions brings together more than 150 Regions from 24 States from the European Union and beyond. In particular, the Atlantic Arc Commission gathers 15 Member Regions from Portugal, Spain, France, Wales, Ireland and Québec. Representing about 200 million people, the CPMR campaigns in favour of a more balanced development of the European territory. It operates both as a think tank and as a lobby for regions.
Through its extensive network of contacts within the EU institutions and national governments the CPMR has, since its creation in 1973, been targeting its action towards ensuring that the needs and interests of its Member Regions are taken into account in policies with a high territorial impact. The Atlantic Arc Commission advocates for a more sustainable Atlantic area on topics such as fisheries and aquaculture, marine renewable energies, connectivity, decarbonisation and prevention of ocean pollution.

The Québec Government Office in Brussels, inaugurated in 1972, seeks to promote Québec and its interests in Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands, as well as within the European institutions. The Office works closely with relevant Ministries and organisations in Québec to foster connections with European interlocutors and develop mutually beneficial collaboration projects. In the context of the Transatlantic project, the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility of Québec is the main partner, building links between the different actors involved: maritime research institutions, innovation clusters and port authorities, to name a few. Québec boasts a large territory on the Eastern side of Canada, facing the Atlantic Ocean. The maritime dimension is at the core of Québec’s identity, which is built around the St. Lawrence river, a strategic waterway and the gateway to the heart of North America.
