Regional and cohesion funds are a prime example of this and as she points out, a lot of Europe's cultural capital is also intensely regional, including festivals like Cannes, Avignon or Salzburg that provide enormous economic benefits to the cities and regions hosting them: "we must really encourage the regions to exploit these funds" to support their creative industries and enhance the economic value of their cultural heritage.
Reģionālie un kohēzijas fondi ir piemērs tam, ka Eiropas kultūras mantojums ir ļoti "reģionāls", un piemēram, festivāli Kannās, Aviņjonā vai Zalcburgā ir arī milzīgas ekonomisks ieguvums pilsētām un reģioniem, kuros tie notiek.
