Who can join?
The programme welcomes a wide variety of partners across sectors:
businesses, NGOs, governmental organisations, research and education institutions, schools, alumni, and individual citizens who share our values.
If you would like to become part of this collaborative European community, we warmly invite you to register.
We are preparing upcoming opportunities for individuals and organisations interested in collaborating with the HEROES Alliance. Soon this section will feature invitations to join joint activities, co-create initiatives, or contribute expertise to our growing network.
HEROESFriends include organisations and individuals who share the alliance’s values and are interested in contributing to education, research, innovation, or community initiatives. This may include companies, NGOs, public institutions, schools, alumni, and citizens engaged in regional development.
Collaboration can take many forms: contributing to joint initiatives, taking part in events, supporting challenge-based learning activities, engaging with research PODs, or sharing expertise relevant to regional needs. As the programme expands, additional opportunities for cooperation will be announced on this page.
Being part of HEROES offers a chance to connect with a European network, engage with students and researchers, explore partnerships that address real regional challenges, and participate in initiatives that strengthen innovation, sustainability, and community resilience.
This space will soon feature stories from our HEROESfriends — businesses, NGOs, governmental organisations, research and education institutions, schools, alumni, and individual citizens who share our values. If you would like to share your experience or initiative with us, we warmly invite you to contribute your story — simply write to us at heroes@viko.lt
