Workshops at local level aim to spread knowledge on a face-to-face level. Topics range from energy management and good housekeeping to local initiatives and funding schemes. Workshops will involve large chemical companies, who are expected to mentor SMEs and stimulate involvement in SPiCE³ action, as well as expert organisations.

The SPiCE³ online platform and the workshops will be highly connected and develop a dynamic information flow. The platform will create comparability beyond country borders, which does not yet exist for the sector. It will bring all information together at EU level directly collected during the workshop series at national or regional level.
The national federations participating in the workshops are:

• Belgium (essenscia)
• Czech Republic (SCHP)
• Finland (Chemind)
• Germany (VCI)
• Italy (Sviluppo Chimica)
• The Netherlands (VNCI)
• Poland (PCCI)
• United Kingdom (CIA)
