On December 1 and 2, 2025, a general assembly of the CRES network was held, in which NARU is an active member.
The long-standing president of the network, Prof. Mario Spatafora, stepped down from his position, and Guido Van Dijk from the Netherlands was elected as the new president.
Three new vice presidents were also elected:
- Mariana Geworski from FHM University, Germany
- Katarzyna Mitrut from PAIZ, Poland
- David Bayona
They will work hard to strengthen CRES as a European network that places at its core the importance of human relationships and the sharing of professional experience — key factors for fostering stronger cooperation and sustainable partnerships.
The network expanded with two new organizations: BRANTA DESARROLLO from Spain and LANTERNE DIGITALI from Italy.
During the meeting, opportunities were discussed for strengthening the network’s capacity for innovation and development, as well as improving its identity and visibility.
The event also provided an excellent opportunity to establish new partnerships and contacts with organizations from various sectors.
