All the different eras of Romanian history are represented here – the original Dacian settlement, the Roman legionary fortress and the magnificent Habsburg citadel in the impregnable star-shaped configuration designed by the French military engineer Marshal Vauban.(…) But today the fortress is also a major tourist attraction- for school children learning about their history, for families enjoying a day out, for foreigners like myself keen to discover and appreciate Romania’s rich architectural heritage».

    START UP INFORMATION City/Partnership Alba Iulia Contact (name-institution-mail) Project Name of the project-action to be developed Cooperation Thematic Area Concrete Challenge Faced SHORT SUMARY OF THE CITY’S CONTEXT • General presentation Alba Iulia is a 74000-inhabitant city located in Transylvania, at the center of Romania. More than 700 employees work for the Municipality. Alba Iulia is an emergent European tourist destination, due to its impressive 2000-year historic and cultural heritage. It is the symbol city of Romanian unity (in 1918, the unification of Romanian provinces took place here) and it is marketing itself as “The Other Capital”. Alba Iulia was the first Romanian city to draft a city brand manual adhering to international standards. Its branding strategy focuses on the main identity element of Alba Iulia: Alba Carolina Citadel, an 18th century citadel built by the Austrian Empire, which was recently rehabilitated with funds offered by the EU, the Romanian government, the Kingdom of Norway, the Japanese government and the United Nations. Alba Iulia has the highest EU fund absorption rate per capita in Romania - 150 million euros were attracted to the city in the last 10 years. It is also the first city in Romania to receive a rating from Moody’s (in 2015, Ba1 with positive outlook) and the only Romanian city to have had a technical assistance agreement with the World Bank. Alba Iulia has also been mentioned in publications such as Forbes, Washington Post or Corriere della Sera, as a best practice example in the field of cultural tourism and city branding strategies.

  • Prelmet Transilvania) Founded : March 2013
    The Cluster Prelucrări Metale Transilvania, Metallcluster Siebenburgen, Cluster Metal Manufactoring Transilvania (PrelMet Transilvania) Founded : March 2013 The cluster is composed by fifteen SME , two companies (and the number grows ) , three universities , two city-halls , two regional administrations , six facilitators and last but not the least an specialized industrial park. Mission : The Cluster Prelucrări Metale Transilvania, Metallcluster Siebenburgen, Cluster Metal Manufactoring Transilvania (PrelMet Transilvania), aims to increase the organizational capacity of the Cluster. The need for implementing this project is determined by the regional and national need of developing cluster structures, based on networking and wining the trust of the economic agents in this type of representation, cooperation, collaboration and development for the future of their communities. The idea of this project was determined by the fact that a cluster is a strong mechanism that can contribute to a sustainable development at regional level, for beginning, and after that at national level. The competitive advantages offered by the cluster structure are deriving from the microeconomic level and are leading towards innovation, increase of the efficiency and supporting the start-up process. Main advantages for the companies that are members in a cluster are: (1) common specialized human resources; (2) common suppliers and specialized clients; (3) specific infrastructure with training institutions adapted to cluster needs together with development and research institutions; (4) dissemination of the knowledge inside the cluster.
