Abstract

The European Grouping of Territorial Cooperation (EGTC) is a supranational legal form in the EU. Introduced in 2006, it grants legal personality to public entities from different member (and non-member) states to promote cross-border, interregional and transnational cooperation. In this paper we discuss this legal form. In addition we provide an overview of the 17 EGTCs with Hungarian participation. We present first explorative results form a survey among 216 Hungarian public entities which are part of EGTCs. According to our findings, the EGTC seems to provide a functioning governance form for cross-border regional cooperation among public entities.
