Who we are
The European Projects Coordination Unit of the City of Pilsen (ÚKEP) is a team of specialists focused on the administration of the Integrated Territorial Investment (ITI) Strategy of the Pilsen Agglomeration and participation in international projects.
Our team consists of coordinators specializing in specific areas of the ITI agenda and international cooperation. In implementing our activities, we collaborate with other departments of the Pilsen City Hall, partners within the Pilsen Agglomeration area, and external experts, depending on the focus of each individual project.
History
The European Projects Coordination Unit of the City of Pilsen (hereinafter referred to as ÚKEP) was established on March 1, 2005, as a contributory organization of the Statutory City of Pilsen. Its founder is the Statutory City of Pilsen, and it is managed by the Office of the Director of the Economic Department of the Pilsen City Hall.
From the very beginning, ÚKEP’s primary activity was the coordination of grant-funded projects. ÚKEP focused on project preparation, drafting grant applications, project management and implementation, and the subsequent administrative closure of projects. ÚKEP also provided information related to grant and funding opportunities, primarily from European Union sources, and offered services to all entities within the City of Pilsen as well as other interested parties involved in specific projects.
As of April 1, 2025, this activity has been taken over by the Department of Grants of MMP, European Grants Division. ÚKEP’s main activity now focuses on the administrative management of the Integrated Territorial Investment Strategy of the Pilsen Agglomeration.
