The two year ICT-WEB-PROMS project aimed at increasing capacity of stakeholders in the Western Balkan countries (WBC) to fully participate in European ICT research and in the European Research Area by creating and supporting strategic partnership between stakeholders in the EU and the WBC while providing access to relevant knowledge. The four key objectives were networking of WB and EU countries in the area of ICT, increasing the capacity of organizations from WBC to create ICT technology and participate in the FP7 ICT programme, creating a supporting project environment and tools that are sustainable and contributing to the implementation of ICT and information society strategies in the WBC and supporting EU policy for co-operation with the WBC.

The Final Report of the project now aims to provide a roadmap for subsequent researchers in the Western Balkan region. The nine page document outlines the results achieved by the ICT-WEB-PROMS project, the problems encountered and the needs identified in the WBC. The report furthermore issues recommendations for the European Commission, national governments and stakeholders and outlines the lessons learnt for future activities in the region.
