  13. Conclusion The goal after the „pilot-phase of implementation EGTC“ is to exchange the experiences within Europe, to get some examples of good practice, to identify the challenges, opportunities, obstacles and the added value. This could be a good basis for more feasible EGTC regulations and an excellent guidance for choosing the most sustainable and efficient instruments in territorial cooperation and for Multi-Level Governance.
