EPIC-WE to Host Policy Workshop Meeting in the Middle in Brussels 22 October 2025 

 The EPIC-WE project will host its policy workshop Meeting in the Middle: Inclusivity and Empowerment through the EPIC-WE Model at Les Ateliers des Tanneurs, Brussels. The full-day event will bring together policymakers, cultural and games sector professionals, researchers, and youth representatives to advance dialogue on collaboration, inclusion, and resilience in Europe’s gaming industry. 

At the heart of the workshop is the question of how innovative approaches —such as the EPIC-WE co-creation model and the Quadruple Helix framework— can strengthen public–private collaboration, foster youth participation, and support more inclusive cultural policy. 

Participants will have the opportunity to engage directly with leading voices in the field, take part in a hands-on co-creation workshop, and contribute to meaningful policy discussions that bridge research, practice, and policymaking.
