Some Polish and Romanian counties were less advanced until 2013 but have now overtaken Slavonia.

Part of the answer lies in smart use of EU funds, as demonstrated by Pomorskie region in Poland. Top priority actions to seize these opportunities can be taken by ministers, county prefects, and regional coordinators.
