UPDATE (10.10.2018)
On the 18-19th of September 2018 a kick-off meeting was organized in Ljubljana, Slovenia. The main aim of the meeting was to get the Project Partners together and define the next steps and activities each one of them will be involved in during the next months. In the meeting (Agenda), all the Work Packages leaders (WPLs) gave a short overview of their work packages, the main goals, results and outputs. The information proved to be useful and helpful to both, Project Partners and Associated Strategic Partners regarding better understanding of the project main vision, structure and objectives.
