SWOT Analysis - Central Europe

3.3 Brief presentation of the city in the European hierarchy and networks (main
junctions)
Pécs so far hasn’t played an important role in the Euroregional network, which
partly due to its structural position within Europe, and partly the external
periphery of the country's transport occlusion is linked.
The Danube-Drava-Sava Euroregion was established in 1998, which was the
first important step toward the broadening relations of the city. The city's
incorporation of the European territorial network has a strategic importance in
the economic and cultural terms as well. The speciality of the present situation
is that linkage into the economic bloodstream, the economic reversal of
subsidence depends on the success of today's cultural record: the cultural
and intellectual heritage and continuity could be the dimension, which is a
real opportunity for the city to the spatial structure of European integration,
and to become a real investment and travel destination.
