WP5 - Management


A successful start of the project

The Kick-off meeting was held on September 26th, 2018 in Zagreb, at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing in Zagreb, Croatia. The meeting was attended by members from the University of Zagreb Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, University of Seville, Imperial College London and the Technological Coropration of Andalusia, as well as a member of the Advisory Board, and there was a lot to talk about. Not only that, but Mirko Kovač's lecture was also a success.

All of the attendees introduced themselves and briefly described what they will be doing as part of the project, while other discussed topics included the dates of future meetings and other planned activities. The meeting was a great success, which is a good sign for the future of the project! Take a look at the gallery from the meeting by following this link.
